Great Promise in A Capella
Dec 7 1999
Format:Audio CD
A combination of wit, comedy, original compositions, and favorite oldies, the first CD from Da Vinci's Notebook is a prize find. Their song "Liposuction" is an amusing commentary on the "nip and tuck" society, "Metal Shop" puts familiar 80s and 90s alternative music to the tune of barber shop singing, and "I Dream of Jeannie" is a cute a capella rendering of the theme music from the TV hit. Of the oldies songs, my favorite is "Blue Moon" -- it's sweet, frankly, and the boys' voices shine through this song. In general, this album is lots of fun and a great listen.
My recommendation for any a capella fan is to buy this album and keep an eye out for their new CD, which should be more widely available in January of 2000. Their new songs are even wittier, more satyrical, and utterly impossible to get out of your head. You can also buy the new disc, "The Life and Times of Mike Flanning" now at live shows (where I just bought mine).

Awesome, funny, talented, amazing!
Mar 23 2002
Format:Audio CD
I was fortunate enough to twice see this little group perform when I lived in Washington DC. They are awesome! This CD is wonderful. Every single song is beautifully performed. Their renditions of "Sgt. Pepper", "With A Little Help from my Friends", "Sittin' On The Dock Of The Bay", and "Stuck In the Middle With You" are jammin versions that are arguably better than the origonals. "Liposuction", "Fish Sticks", "Traffic Jam", and "Shoehorn with Teeth" are hysterical. "Window Washing Cowboy" is a humerous, sad, and beautiful ballad in the classical style.
This CD has a nice mix of "serious" fun songs and funny songs. If you want a more humorous CD, check out their "The Life And Times of Mike Fanning" CD. The songs on that CD are just as beautifully performed by almost every song on that CD is funny and will have you rolling on the floor.
If you live in on the East Coast, check their website to see when you can see them live, they're live shows are awesome!
Enjoy!

Incredible, hilarious, impressive, and a must-have!
Feb 21 1999
Format:Audio CD
From the soulful rendition of the Mickey Mouse Club theme song to the hilarious sales pitch of "Liposuction," Da Vinci's Notebook shows their breadth and depth of humor and sound in this signature album. A definite winner, and a keeper in any collection. Especially enjoyed tracks include "The Joy of Pickled Okra," "Metal Shop," and "I Dream of Jeannie." It'll keep you laughing and keep you humming for days afterwards!
