Customer Reviews:

Manhattans baby!.......2007-01-11

Love to enjoy this music in the bathtub or sitting around having some Manhattans, very enjoyable. Got it very quickly. Love it!

I love the Ultra-Lounge series........2006-12-10

The sound quality of the Ultra-Lounge series is excellent, even though the songs were recorded mostly in the 50's and 60's. Capitol Records packs each CD with carefully chosen tracks consistent with the theme of the particular volume in the series. Many of the selections that appear here aren't available elsewhere, either because the original album on which the song appeared is out of print, or because the song was issued as a single and never collected in an album. A few 'previously unreleased' tracks also appear here. This series is a wonderful introduction to the music of a by-gone era, and each album includes detailed notes on each track (artist, writers, date recorded, how released, etc.). I heartily recommend it to anyone who has an interest in this type of music.

Topsy-Turvy Lounge.......2005-05-18

This is the most whimsical entry in the Ultra Lounge series, and would fit right in with a lime green and orange lounge filled with bean bags and moon lamps. I'm sure Austin Powers would dig it.

Some of the highlights are:
"Big Noise From Winnetka/Midnight Swim" - horn-laden big band segues into loungy film score from "Sex and The Single Girl",
"Hot Toddy" - swingin' Julie London vocals, "doo-doo-doo",
"Mah-Na, Mah-Na" - harmonica and kazoo,
"Guys and Dolls" - if Tubular Bells were lounge,
"Cute" - organ fits the title,
"Donkey Serenade" - vibraphone over a bass guitar that sounds like hoof beats,
"Baby Elephant Walk/Java" - classic 60s pop,
"Potluck" - scat singing,
"Squatty Roo" - angular "squatty" sound,
"Deep Purple/S' Wonderful" - strange theremin sounds (could have been included on Space Capades),
"Quiet Village" - a classic tiki lounge song revisited on Moog (another song that could have been on Space Capades).

The Best in the Series.......2000-02-22

I got the "fuzzy" sampler for Christmas last year and began buying other volumes. This is by far one of the better volumes in the series. Wacky and wholesome got married and this is their baby!

Buy this and have a party!!.......1999-01-01

I got this for Christmas and listened to it on New Year's eve. I had a blast! This is fun music. This is music for when you are doing "naughty" things like smoking a cigar, having a martini, or having some really spicy salsa dip on some greasy potato chips. Every track on this album screams, "Hey, let's have some fun!!" This music helps you not to take life too seriously and is a perfect antidote to stress. I am definitely buying more albums in this series after hearing this one. I am getting so tired of pop songs about depressing subjects such as anger and alienation sung by overpaid spoiled brats. This music is about good times and getting together with other people for food, cocktails, dancing and romance. This music was what our parents and grandparents (if they were cool) bought and it is time to unleash it again!! From now on, color me green - as in lounge lizard!
