Product Description
On break from Rough Trade and her band The Moldy Peaches, our friend Kimya Dawson finds herself at home on Important Records, releasing two full-length albums at once. Both are full of moving original folk songs about Atari 2600s, love, growing up, growing old, overcoming hardships and Matlock. Dawson is one of the most genuine voices in modern music and the superstar of NYC's anti-folk scene. Knock, Knock Who? finds Dawson stronger and more confident than ever before.

5 out of 5 stars Broadway style performances in terrific sound!.......2006-07-11

These performances by British singers are all ones that Kern himself would have liked. No-nonsense singing and arranging so that what you hear is the song Kern wrote--not a performaner's special interpretation that is more about the performer than the song. Most sound as if they are right out of the show that generated the song in the first place. If you want top drawer musicality of performers that match the composer's, this is far better than the compilations of assorted pop singers. It's all about Kern's music.

      5 out of 5 stars My favorite all time album finally on CD!.......2003-03-03

      60 Years Of Music America Hates Best is Spike Jones` masterpiece and a scream! When my dad was stationed in France around 1960 he would go to the base exchange and buy trippy albums like this for us kids. We completely trashed it, of course, but not until it had seen about a million spins. In 1990 I was in hog heaven when I found a SEALED vinyl copy at a used record store. Now it's out on CD and my life is complete. Thank you Taragon Records!

      4 out of 5 stars Something a little different from Spike Jones.......2003-01-25

      After Spike's original comedy band, the City Slickers, broke up (as happened to all the swing bands of the same vintage), Spike's recordings took a different approach. Here we have in beautiful stereo two projects based on two different themes. "Omnibust" is a parody of television shows of the early 60s, including westerns, kid shows, travelogues, soap operas, sports events, and plenty of "commercials." Note that this is more of a "comedy sketch" than the musical craziness Spike is identified with. The "60 Years..." album is a collection of songs from the 1920s, 30s, 40s, and 50s -- from ragtime to rock n' roll -- with Spike-Jones-type sound effects tossed in. It's not the old City Slicker band, but quite amusing never-the-less. Two nostalgic items with a sense of humor!
