Comment:

Let me begin by thanking 2old2matter for the copy of "We Still Ain't Got No Band" by the Persuasions. He did a masterful job in transferring vinyl to CD. "Good Old Acapella" (track 1) is from this source.
I also thank Sabrina123 for the basic inspiration to finally "do" an acapella compilation!
Tracks 1-8 a kinda traditional from the doo wop roots (not the barber shop roots)
Tracks 9-18 are acapella cuts of songs that just should not, could not, be done with voices alone; but are, and masterfully so!
The disc ends (tracks 19 to close) with a return to just fine examples of the genre. Enjoy!

Zombie Jamboree is such a fun A Capella song. I included it in one of my Halloween mixes before. I'm still in the process of assembling my A Capella mix, but you can bet it will include Rockapella! ;)

A-cappella: the most under-represented of all genres. The Bobs are fantastic, and that Yaz cover by Flying Pickets is one of my all-time fave a-cappellas. Just too bad there isn't a download link...

A Capella rules. There is absolutely no bones about it. For more fun, trying The Buffalo Chips' version of Cake's "Never There".

Just got the mix in the mail and it's wonderful! I know this will be one of the CDs I will listen to over and over again.
Thanks!
