CD Reviews

The best from the Hoople Scoop
ramscots | Tucson, Arizona United States | 10/07/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is my favorite PDQ Bach because it seems to be closest to their roots at the University of Southern North Dakota at Hoople. It's the smallest things that make it best (from What's My Melodic Line): "The first prize is the entire recorded works of Vivaldi (or is it Scarlatti?) on convenient 45 RPM records sent to you once a month for the next 38 years". These guys are definite Baroque snobs, but loveable at every point. I like everything about this CD - especially the "commercials". The high school sports reports are priceless.Buy this CD and you will never regret it."
One of the best
Wüstenfuchs | Illinois | 06/29/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"A hilarious album, filled with inspired parodies of small-town radio, original instrument recordings (the Träumerei), weather forecasts, "Anchors Aweigh", you name it. By the way, just as The Stoned Guest is a parody of Mozart, this album constantly rags on Beethoven: the Schleptet is compared favorably to Beethoven's septet, he is accused of "awkward contrapuntal exercises", and so on. Toward the end of the Dull and Late Show, Beethoven finally gets his revenge."
Classic stuff

"This is some of the best PDQ ever done. It's classic stuff for musicians and music lovers, young and old. I'm glad that they are finally transferring his things to CD. Terrific."
