The Baseballs

Surprised there hasn't been a thread about them yet. They do 50's rock-and-roll remixes of modern pop songs and they're absolutely brilliant. They've been doing the rounds around Europe for a year or so but their debut album came out in the UK this week and went straight to no1 in the iTunes charts.

Some examples...

Thanks Daysha!

I saw an ad for this a couple of days ago and :eek: was the reaction it got. I don't really like the "songs in the style of ......." type bands. The Hot 'N' Cold cover is OK but that's an easy enough song to get right. I can't bring myself to check out Angels or I Don't Feel Like Dancing. It reminds me too much of things like Club Country Anthems.

Grid.

Jeez they're dreadful......awful name too!:P
