专辑介绍

by Bill Peters

The Pietasters' Oolooloo strictly adheres to a first-wave ska upbringing, but maintains enough personality and variety to hold the attention of weary fans and ska tenderfoots alike. Vocalist Stephen Jackson is at once a drunken Irishman on &Maggie Mae,& a womanizer with a truckload of come-ons during &Girl Take It Easy& and &Biblical Sense,& and a tough-talking, hand-jiving sleazeball on the seedy &Pleasure Bribe& and &Movin' on Up.& But what's most interesting about Oolooloo is its inclination toward R&B and Motown. &Tell You Why& stays smooth and tender without losing its ska credibility. The suave but dejected &Can I Change My Mind& mixes slow-swaying ska with Al Green. The Pietasters even reinterpret the Four Tops classic &Same Old Song& to fit ska conventions. Oolooloo is half dirty, slimy fun, half debonair introspection. Brilliant? Not really. Worth picking up? Definitely. And besides, when doesn't a ska band need your money?
