I am really digging the Bird and the Bee's tribute to Hall and Oates. The album is called, Interpreting the Masters Volume 1: A Tribute to Daryl Hall and John Oates, which implies to me that there are more masters they plan to interpret. Oooo, I'm excited for more!
Hall and Oats is one of my first favorite bands and probably one of the first albums that I listened to and loved from start to finish. I vividly remember swinging on the swings with my portable boom box, listening to one of their tapes over and over. My best friend and I even had made up dance moves for the song, "Private Eyes". The moves mostly involved miming the different parts of the chorus, as you do with song lyrics when you are a kid, but we thought we were pretty cool.
I love the Bird and the Bee's unique take on the songs and I appreciate that they kept the music very much the same, but add a bit to modernize the songs and spice them up. Inara George's voice is so sweet and sultry! I adore their version of Sara Smile. Can't get it out of my head!
