5.0 out of 5 stars Power-Pop....Pure and Perfect!, June 17, 2001
By A Customer
The best 'cover' album ever made! The 'Mints preform simply stunning versions of some of the best, and for the most part obscure, pop songs ever made. Highlights are the obscure Turtles song "Love In The City" and the seldom-heard Stories song "Darling". Now available as a much less- UK import, there's no excuse for you to not add this to your collection NOW!

5.0 out of 5 stars Guess They're Not Dumb, November 6, 2004
The Wondermints manage to convey all the zaniness, energy, experimentation, and, yes, childlike wonder of the 1960s and 1970s without any of the lazy, druggy self-indulgence that occasionally marred the astral travels of those decades. This album, like Todd Rundgren's "Faithful," pays homage to beloved and influential music, though in this case the music draws heavily from cult favorites, overlooked jewels (like Brian Wilson's sublime "Guess I'm Dumb"), or completely left-field choices like "Barbarella." Prepare to be entertained--and maybe find some soulmates.
