WHAT A LONG STRANGE TRIP IT'S BEEN |

DIFFERENT FOR GIRLS "I remain hugely pleased and flattered that it exists." "Just about every track on Different for Girls is a winner." (B+) "Different for Girls is an enjoyable and consistent tribute to a
brilliant, underrated songwriter and these 14 interpretations should make him proud.
Each track sparkles on a unique facet of Jackson's work." "Overall this is a good and thoroughly enjoyable album." "Different for Girls turns Joe Jackson's best tunes on their head with gender-bending
takes that manage to bring out the sweet (in the title track), the rawk ('Look Sharp!'), the glitter
('Steppin' Out'), and the agony ('Breaking Us in Two') that made Jackson one of the eighties' best,
and most memorable, songwriters." "Once again you have put together an extraordinary disc. An excellent
mix of Mr. Jackson's finer moments and each selection does them justice... Congrats on
another successful project!" |

SPIDERS FROM VENUS "I don't think I've ever been this excited about such an eclectic
group of women before. Spiders From Venus must make its
way into your collection." "As tribute records go, this one is a keeper." "Another winner — a quirky, enchanting CD." |

LOVE HER MADLY "An album of superb tracks ... a must listen!" " "A stunning new CD ... the perfect melding of old songs with new voices." "Amidst the several recent Doors tribute CDs that have come out in the last couple of years, this CD is the only one worthy of being talked about in our newsletter and should be checked out by anyone interested in hearing Doors cover tunes explored in new ways. I was really quite amazed!" |

SATURDAY NIGHT HAY FEVER "Hilarious and intriguing ... off-the-wall originality." "This is perhaps the best that disco has sounded in decades." "Besides having the best name for a cover album ever, Saturday Night Hay Fever features nine great examples of what happens when you take away Travolta's white suit, and replace it with bib overalls." |
