5.0 out of 5 stars What a hoot, September 3, 2001
By William Adair (Logan, UT USA) - See all my reviews
I do not know what on earth possessed me to buy this CD. I'm not a big lounge fan. I am not cool. I listen to bluegrass, for crying out loud.

The Fuzzy Sampler is indeed a packaging masterpiece. Could that have been it? No- I bought it from Amazon, sight unseen.

The music? The Fuzzy Sampler contains some of the silliest tunes ever to find their way into my CD player. "Lonesome Road" is like Spike Jones on acid. Do not sip on a martini while listening to "Teach Me Tiger"- you will choke on the olive. "Swamp Fire" sounds like something you'd hear at a church haunted house, and - "Holiday for Strings?" Speechless.

But then again, I turn the knob to 11 every time "Peter Gunn," "Pink Panther," and "I Love Paris" come on. Overall, the mix is perfect- uptempo beat, then smooth sex (er, I mean sax), short trip on an elevator, then back to jump...and the embarrassing moments ("French Rat Race"- ptooey!) are over quickly.

Great pick-me-up music, and what an eye opener. I can't wait to throw more money at the rest of Ultra Lounge series!

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the hottest, jazziest, funniest, greatest CD's ever!!, July 22, 1998
By A Customer
I originally bought this CD because I liked the cover. (Anything covered in tacky fuzzy leopard print is just too irresistable! And the actual CD has a giant martini olive on it!) But I got it home and absolutely fell in love with the songs. I have since given this CD as a gift to several people, all of whom have gotten as big a thrill from it as I have. In fact, it is the only music we played during our entire New Year's Eve party, and we never got tired of it. "Teach me Tiger" is one of the funniest songs I've ever heard, what were they thinking when they released that!?!?! Deano is his usual swingin' self with "Cha Cha D'Amour." Bobby Darin never fails to get me wanting "More." "Jump, Jive, an' Wail" has recently been remade, but of course, the original is much better. "Glow Worm Cha Cha Cha" will make you feel like you're at a skating rink. I'm amazed at how often I hear the music from this CD in commercial! s and radio announcements. But it's not just the music.... even the packaging and the insert that come with it help to put you in a 50's, atomic shelter, backyard BBQ, martini sipping, lipstick-stained-cigarette kind of mood.

5.0 out of 5 stars ultra swank: how cool can one disc be?, March 6, 2000
Lower the lights, shake one up (a twist please) and prepare to experience what swank and smooth is all about. This fantastic collection is a veritable time/cool machine; projecting you back to an age of class and alcolhol induced enlightenment which, it seems, many of us have lost. A definate must have.

It is what it is, and it is what I ordered, but it is not the CD I thought it was.

5.0 out of 5 stars Teach Me Tiger.. and how!
This CD is worth the price for the one track "Teach Me Tiger." Similar to other CDs offered, this is one where a smoking jacket and a retro 50's vibe come to life. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Get it
A good sampler of the first 12 volumes of the series. With the super cool cover, you should get it even if you have all 12.

A question to y'all who have it. Read more
