Best of Big Daddy
, February 10, 2002Reviewer: rick_garlick - See all rick_garlick's reviewsBig Daddy represents one of the true undiscovered (by most listeners) musical treasures. These guys were, and are, true musical geniuses. Their ability to creatively fuse contemporary music with songs of the early days of rock and roll is astonishing. I have literally been waiting for the past eight or nine years for a new album. While the music on this album is not all new, there are three previously unreleased songs that make this album worth the wait. Check these guys out if you truly want a unique musical experience. Perhaps if enough people get on the bandwagon, they will release a new album someday. ...

Pro Reviews: Best of Big Daddy
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews Somewhere among the Golden Throats albums, Sha-Na-Na,Richard Cheese, and Weird Al lies Big Daddy. Taking some of the digital age's greatest pop songs and flattening them onto 45s, Big Daddy add new super-retro sides to some of your retro dance-party favorites. Combining a live "Little Red Corvette" with "Beep Beep (Nash Rambler)," "Once in a Lifetime" with "Day-O," and "Help Me Make It Through the Night" with "Charlie Brown" and "Yakkity-Yak," Big Daddy slams Rick James in the same jukebox as the Everly Brothers, mashes Cyndi Lauper with Gene Chandler, and swirls Lennon and McCartney with a whole mess of folks, including Johnny Mathis and Buddy Holly. Sting also gets stung not once, but twice with a doo wop of "Every Breath You Take" and a noiry swing through "Money for Nothing." Fortunately, Big Daddy has the good taste to use the King himself to make fun of Celine's sinking ship theme. Even more fortunate is the fact that, as long as you have a good (and slightly twisted) sense of humor, few of these tracks are sinkers themselves. In fact, these valiant efforts at genre-bending may lead you to reexamine your old faves and even your taste in music. - Matthew Robinson, All Music Guide |
