The Puppini Sisters
I was prepared to write off The Puppini Sisters as too gimmicky to take seriously - but then I actually heard it, and was entranced. Not only are the 3-part harmonies amazingly tight and beautiful (insert obligatory Andrews Sisters comparison here), but the band behind the women is outstanding as well. The result is an unexpected treat: a snazzy retro record that manages to sound fresh. From the 2007 release The Rise & Fall Of Ruby Woo.
The Puppini Sisters - Walk Like An Egyptian
The Puppini Sisters - Crazy In Love
Recently on Comfort Radio:
Meat Beat Manifesto - Mass Producing Hate
Icotec - Birth Of The Pion
Louis Prima - Banana Split for My Baby

I want to say how much I loved the harmonies on these cuts. I am from a family of musicians and we would be at the dinner table and my Dad would say "girls", or "boys" and we would break out in songs with three part harmonies. Some of the happier times of my life!
This group sounds like fun! I like that. That is magic!
Great group backing them up.Good production value I will do my best to see them live.
I wouldn't want to fall into the trap of presuming that this is the full extent of there talents! Only a fool would fall down that well.
We'll be listening to this at great leather while we work. Thank you ladies and gents for some great music!
