Big Daddy - Smashing Songs Of Stage & Screen
Label: RockBeat Records Catalog: ROC-CD-3281 Format: CD Big DaddyThe group that perfected mashups before there was such a word, not a cover band, not a parody group, not by any means an oldies group, Big Daddy performs in doo-wop style, usually using the arrangement of a 50s or 60s classic. The combinations are inspired, marrying songs that may not sound alike at all but are similarly constructed (how about Bruce Springsteen's "Dancing in the Dark" set to Pat Boone's "April Love")' Moreover, some numbers cleverly choose songs that are thematically linked ("What Kind of Fool Am I" from "Stop the World--I Want to Get Off" & Ricky Nelson's "Poor Little Fool," "I Could Have Danced All Night" from "My Fair Lady" & Bobby Freeman's "Do You Want to Dance'").
