1 out of 5 stars unfortunate.......2001-03-22

as much as I love the boys, this cd is definitely not their best work. listening to the cd explains why the only song they play live is "girls gonna boogie tonight" which falls short here, and is better live. it would take a lot of beer for this to sound better. a better example of their work is the "Live" album, or "I wanna see you bellydance"

5 out of 5 stars Why a disco album? Because they CAN!.......2000-05-11

This was the answer given to me by Oleg when posed the strategic question. And it makes perfect sense when you know these charming guys: why not go digital in 2K if you can get away with it in grand style? The Red Elvises have not lost their edge, they've just added a new twist to their already eclectic repertoire. There's enough material in Shake Your Pelvis to please any fan, old or new. Surfing guitar riffs? Yes. Catchy melodies and hilarious vocals? Yes. Feet stomping, hip swinging beats? Yes. Boring album? Absolutely not! I admire any band that dares to step out of the beaten path to explore new ways of shaking their pelvis. As refreshing as a cool margharita on a hot summer day, The Red Elvises take you on a happy audio trip and leave you begging for more. So keep your ears open and give this album a good listen - it's a jewel.

2 out of 5 stars Not the Red Elvises' best.......2000-05-03

The Red Elvises certainly have a unique sound -- a combination of Russian folk music and surf rock. Unfortunately, in this album they have wandered far afield from their early strengths. The fast and furious guitar work and innovative sounds of their earlier albums (especially "Surfing in Siberia" and "I Wanna see You Bellydance") have been replaced with a heavy-handed disco/techno beat that gets extremely repetitive after a while. About two thirds of the way through the album, I found myself wondering when it would end. I will admit that much of my disappointment with this album comes from my having very high expectations for it. I like the Red Elvises, but this is not their best album by a long shot.
