5.0 out of 5 stars Maybe the perfect American pop record, January 1, 2002

By	J. Savage (Weymouth, MA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Men Who Loved Music (Audio CD)

The Fellows aren't afraid of swiping inspiration from all over the musical landscape. Successfully looting the last 50+ years of pop music, they managed to harness everything that was ever cool, exciting, and fun in a way few (if any) bands have. It all gets unleashed on this disc: rock-a-billy, punk, pop, country all get the Fellows' special treatment. Listen to this album once; you'll be singing along and grinning as much as the band themselves by the end of your first listen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Did I mention, nobody gets a 5 star ( Ooop's ), November 5, 2001

By	andrew ward (Bellingham, WA. USA) - See all my reviews

Ok Ok, It's all true....

The apex (if you will) the height of Pop music is reached right here. Simply slide your mouse over and select the "add to my cart" button.

Your musical road map will change forever, you will run to the store and buy a beat-up old guitar and sit for weeks playing this over and over, giddy with laughter as you lose your job but uncover the secrets of E A and C, oh yeah and G too (for the bridge)

In other words it's simple, it's beautiful, it's funny it's timeless. No tricks no fancy production. A++ material

To my entire generation these guys should have been the "Beatles" to my circle of 20 or so friends the "Young Fresh Fellows" were our Beatles...it's that important (In "86" I was 21)

5.0 out of 5 stars The great unknown classic, June 12, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: The Men Who Loved Music (Audio CD)

It probably won't happen until the great reckoning, but at some point the music buying public will be punished for neglecting one of history's great rock and roll bands. From Seattle before and after it was cool to be so, the YFF's peak with this magnificent collection of pop, country, punk and even a dash of jokey ska/funk. Brilliant lyrics and rich hooks. If you buy one album this year, you should have bought this one in 1987. They need some beer money.
