4.0 out of 5 stars Their best, November 12, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: One Size Fits All (Audio CD)

It's for sure their best, catchy songs, fine arrangements and beautiful singing. One star off because Bumble Boogie is missing. I'm glad I still have original LP.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Nylon's Finest Hour, April 27, 2002

I discovered the Nylons via this 1980's release over 15 years ago and have been hooked ever since. Both on stage and in these wonderful accappella tracks, the group lifts the listener to new heights, and in the process literally reinvents some of the classic songs we all know and love. The standout here is "Up the Ladder to the Roof" - originally a song from The Supremes - but given a new percolating lease on life in this superb arrangement, which shines unlike any other Supremes cover recorded before or since. Other strong cuts include "Please" "That Kind of Man" and "Prince of Darkness." Whether singing soft easy listening numbers or rocking gems, the Nylons will capture your audio heart in this shining album, which I consider one of the best vocal collections of the past 20 years. A superb addition to any music lover's library!

One Size Fits All is a wonderful a cappella pop album that is aptly named because it is so widely appealing. This album is well known in high end audio circles for its natural vocals and superb recording. I bought my copy after seeing it in many audio stores during my college days.

This is one of my favorite CDs, not only because it impresses on my high end audio system, but the songs are downright infectious. Don't be surprised to find yourself humming and snapping your fingers even after the music stops playing.

Highly recommended!
