The Bird and the Bee

Add Date: March 23

Artist: The Bird and the Bee

Album: Interpreting the Masters: Volume 1: A Tribute to Daryl Hall and John Oates

Label: EMI/Blue Note

Genre: Pop

Comments: It's a HALL AND OATES TRIBUTE ALBUM. It's downright amazing. The Bird and the Bee have successfully revamped classic Hall and Oates tracks while keeping the music's original integrity intact; singer Inara George's voice gives each song an interesting twist, and as multi-instrumentalist/producer (the other half of the duo) Greg Kurstin says, "There's definitely no irony". Must be heard to be believed. Try any of the tracks--it really depends on your Hall and Oates preferences....personally, I'm partial to "I Can't Go For That", "Kiss On My List", "Maneater", and "Private Eyes." (Also check out the original track "Heard it On the Radio".)
