Member CD ReviewsB. Jason O. (panicBoy) from MANCHESTER, NH Reviewed on 4/20/2007... Holy crap. Just get it. Remember that one weird-lookin' dish on the buffet that you dared yourself to try? Remember how awful it was? OK, bad analogy. But this record is a friggin' masterpiece. It's indie-pop craftsmanship of the highest order. Quirky, fun, and infectious as the severe cramps you got after eating at that buffet. What the hell was that anyway? 1 of 1 member(s) found this review helpful.
CD ReviewsThis CD does it.... reeagan@hotmail.com | Phoenix, AZ USA | 09/01/2000 (4 out of 5 stars) ""Wow", was the first thing I said. I first heard this doing college radio and loved it. There is hardly any other artist that could possibly touch what Spookey was doing. He has a great voice and everything musically is so unique and fits so perfect. Actually, this guy belongs in a looney bin in Canada. He is from Canada though... I have noticed lately that most of my favorite things are coming out of Canada." Quirky, Weird and Wonderful! Juliet Blake | Atlanta, Georgia | 08/06/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "Maybe it's because I'm old and worn out. Maybe it's because everything these days sounds like processed cheese. Maybe I bought this because the british music magazine Mojo said this was "Kate Bush and the Beach Boys in a blender." Whatever the reason, I LOVE it! So many great songs--and done with a flourish of humor, too. I love it when weird is well done and this is a perfect example of really great weird. You'll never hear this guy on mainstream radio, because he's TOO GOOD! Why hasn't he put anything out since this--I'm waiting! Perhaps Spookey has transmogrified into a sputnik and he's now circling the earth. If so, I'm inclined to join him...Spookey wait for me!"
