Monday Off: big band era vocals meet contemporary harmonies. Monday Off is definitely all music with vocal harmonies to die for. Their outstanding take on Lennon/McCartney's "Blackbird" "If I Only Had A Brain" would make even Dan Quayle break into dance as he walked out of a John Mellencamp concert to protest an anti-Bush song by his fellow Hoosier. "Wouldn't That Be Loverly" describes them perfectly, sorta like late night around here when all the folks have gone to bed at 7 p.m. Listen up to Monday Off. Your ears will thank you.
