5.0 out of 5 stars They have become an icon, September 29, 2005
This review is from: Union Cafe (Audio CD)
Since the mid 80's I have been listening to the Penguin Cafe Orchestra and am delighted to say that this stands up with all their previous works.

The first track was so sweet - invoking the morning sun. By the time the second tune came on (Lifeboat) I knew this meant coffee - full bodied and strong immersed in cellos. Charming and disarming.

I have always instinctively called Simon Jeffes' PCO "Still Life Music". Their music makes you stay in touch with nature and nostalgia both. At times almost wooden it's like a campaign to stop us getting too clinical, official or artificial in the increasingly more sophisticated yet often tasteless modern world.

Thank you Simon for stepping out of the machinery.

Long live the Penguin Cafe Orchestra.
