"Come on! There is just alittle TOO MUCH intense hatred for this band, and the numbers are grossly tilted towards "diss-like".Sounds to me like a bunch of school boys "dissing" the band because they are getting some action! why not lay off the jealousy routine? I too listen to all the other bands this one is compared to, and I LIKE this album! I LIKE the fact that they do covers that are out of the norm-as for comments about playing this over and over again-is this the only CD you own?no CD is meant to be listened to thousands of times a day...lighten up! I have purchased my copy AFTER hearing the CD at a friend's, and would welcome the opportunity to see them live."
Gotta Love 'Em!

"Okay, so The New Morty Show isn't your typical Swing band. In fact, at some points their dalliences into other genres is rather... unusual... but *endearing*! The listener has to look at them as their own unique entity & not expect them to fit into the usual Swing mold. If you want a band that doesn't quite fit into the box, but definitely has their boots on, this is the band for you. Cheers, Morty!"
Mortified!

"Connie Champagne has a wonderful voice, Vise Grip is one crazy guy and the band is wonderful. Songs are in Louis Prima & Keely Smith Style. "Enter Sandman" is nothing special, "White Wedding (Rebel Yell) Medley" is cool, "Caldonia" is Caldonia, but songs like "Baby What's Up", "15 Months in Jail", "Blue Martini", "Shoppin' Mall Mama","Knockin' at Your Door",... are really great. Very entertaining!"
