I was already a fan of the Puppini Sisters's first CD and they are an amazing live act. I think the new CD is excellent, with really memorable new songs like Jilted and Soho Nights, and you've got to hear their cover of Beyonce's Crazy In Love - brilliant. It's not as commercial as the first CD, but its a CD I have already listened to many many times, and I really hope they get the chance to make a 3rd CD soon! It also makes me laugh on a regular basis, and I'm making all my friends listen to it!

I've listened to this album a lot since I bought it. I bought it because I loved the first album and, after seeing them live in 'Borders' in London, I thought there really was something special about them; something different and exciting from the norm.
So I was a little disappointed in reading some of the reviews about the second album - but I thought I'd give it a whirl; who knows, I might be surprised. I am so glad I ignored the negative reviews! This is a really good album! If you are not one to be hooked by the latest trends and enjoy trying something different; music with a great melody and a style and delivery that will put a smile on your face, then try this. I fail to see how the comments regarding sound quality have arisen and can only think that those making the comments must have had a duff CD. My album sounds crisp, bright and clear - everything you would expect from a quality recording. If you are not sure the Puppini Sisters' style of music is for you, there are plenty of free downloads. I recommend you listen to some of their work; and hope you enjoy this second album as much as I.

Oh my god! I've just seen the video for Spooky... those little vixens look amazing. Had a listen to the rest of the tracks and they just ooze cool... nice to hear a group doing something different for a change. Worth every penny!

Glamourous listening
This is a smooth and delightful cd full of evocative songs from another era as well as more recent. It was the perfect antidote to the excess of Xmas songs. Read more
