  • Rather delightful
    author: Bruce Feist

    My favorite tracks on the album are probably "I Love the Morning" and "Leftovers". Quality is uniformly high, though.

    Absolutely awesome album. Favorite songs would have to be Starsoul, tiberius rising and song for jim. Great music, great artists. Definitely a good buy.

  • Funny and moving
    author: Noah Chinn

    By far my favorite song is Starsoul, but there are a lot of songs on the CD that are funny and moving. I hope to hear more from this group in the future!

  • Good stuff!

    Catchy, and a lot of fun. I had the refrain of 'Technonerdboy' running through my head for a good three days straight after my first listen, and even after that it didn't get old.

  • Superb, laugh out loud, very catchy
    author: Mark Long

    Sex and Chocolate is a real treat in an accapella jazz style. There isn't a bad track on here. Actually, there isn't anything but first rate songs, well written, well played and well sung. Song for Jim is a touching tribute to a lost loved one. This CD is faultless.
