Pros:
- Sounds mostly like music - some of the songs sound better than their real-music counterparts!
- Good songs that are popular - not the traditional Hamalach Hagoel and Mi Adir songs.
- Full length CD with 14 tracks
Cons:
- Makes you feel guilty for listening to it during the Three Weeks.
- Features the Yafyafisa song two times. It would do better having just the Shalsheles Jr. version.
Bottom Line: The CD is really good for the Sefira days, when the theme isn't all about mourning. However, the album does make you feel slightly uncomfortable if it's listened to during the mourning days of the 3 weeks and 9 days. It has a wonderful blend of fast and slow songs. It also features a really cool track ("Greatest Medley Ever") that starts off with a rather humorous introduction.Worth every penny. Save yourself about $5 by downloading it (i.e from the Mostly Music website).
The other thing that makes me feel guilty... some of their song concepts were taken from non-jewish songs. its still a good album and i like that they did acapella version of my favorite ssongs (i am obsessed with yofyafisa, vehi sheomda and anovim)
ReplyDeletegreat album though... listening to it now!
