The Bobs cover album

I just opened the CD that came in yesterday's mail, The Bobs Sing the Songs of... I am now grooving to their a capella versions of classics like Psycho Killer, Helter Skelter, and Purple Haze. Hahahaha.

The Ring of Fire cover is insanely cheery, echoing the famous Johhny Cash version (which is itself a cover), with its equally insane mariachi horn section. The man was doing serious drugs at the time. My daughter gave me a crazy look when I played Whole Lotta Love. Janey Bob is awesome on Fever. You Really got a Hold on Me and Good Lovin' are a little more traditional as a capella goes, and almost could be anybody. Come Together is a favorite.

And, even more insanely, the booklet is signed by all four of The Bobs. I would never have given this up, had it been mine. Am I the beneficiary of someone taking revenge on their ex by giving away her/his CDs? Did someone decide they're too sane to like the Bobs anymore? I don't know, but I smile when I remember seeing them live at the Michigan, which this CD helps with a lot, since they did many of these covers at that show.

I &hearts The Bobs.

I am wictorious!
