Pink Martini - Hang On Little Tomato

Has anyone bought that album?

I heard one song on Montreal's Jazz radio station and rushed to the music store to buy the CD.

Technically it was in the Jazz section but it's very hard to classify.

I think it's definitely worth a listen.

Yes, I've heard them, they have two albums and are pretty nice band, I personaly preffer theier first album "sympathique".
The reviews in amazon.com could tale you more.
But if you like that sort of bands I wish to recommend you:
Combustible Edison's - all albums
Don Tiki - both albums
Tipsy - "Triptease" and "Uh-Oh"

PM are a local band hereabouts - they are based in Portland, OR, and play 'round here on a regular basis.

They are currently scheduled for five shows in the UK – Edinburgh, Coventry, London, Poole, and Bristol – in October of this year (no Canada gigs mentioned). It's a good time, if you get to go.

You say it's a good time... so I assume you've heard them live?

Lucky son...
