notes

Make it a hot time of music and laughs with this Estrogen fueled, hilarious new show that celebrates the best of BABES, BOYS & BOTOX. Produced - with conviction - by Hem & Haw Productions, this disc is lucky #7 for the Four Bitchin' Babes!

NOTES:

After 16 years as a traveling pajama party, six recordings, and one full length concert DVD, this Fabulous Female Folkestra of indestructible Divas are hotter than ever. Literally! Always evolving, witty and charming, the Babes welcome in a new era with a new cast, and a new musical revue that is one part comedy road show, one part celebration of hearth and home.

With sorority sister chemistry they perform original songs and stories offering both poignant views and unbridled comedic commentary on the joys and dilemmas of everyday life. With heavenly harmony, they share struggles to balance careers and family.

This CD opens with a cover of “Oh No” the perfect babe song written by founding member Christine Lavin. The 2006 Hormonal Imbalance Musical Revue welcomes cast members, Philadelphia’s comic goddess, Deirdre Flint, showcasing her wry wit with “Cheerleader,” “Boob Fairy,” along with the ever so smooth “Taxidermal Therapy.” Nashville’s studio singing, magazine editing, songwriter - Nancy Moran lets loose as she pumps it up on “Honestly,” while soulfully wishing us all “Unconditional Love.” She also does a straight up killer version of the Camille West/Scott Wodicka hit “Viagra in the Waters.”

Longtime Babes, Sally Fingerett and Debi Smith are back with those true to form “Babe Tunes” they’re known for. Sally finally accepts the inevitable and heats things up with “Hot Flash,” calms down while pleading for “One Easy Day” and then finds her balance as she honors ancestors and family with her haunting “Faces On My Wall.” Debi once again takes her 5 octave voice out for a stroll with “Walk The Walk,” and then pays tribute to her walking partner (her mom) with “Just Ask Your Doctor,” a hilarious diatribe of pharmaceutical warnings that Debi co-wrote with her mother Vivian Smith. This new project wouldn’t be complete without Babe hit “Pass it On” Debi’s ode to her son featuring her magnificent Bodhran (Irish drum).

The Babes are as wild and wacky as ever all the while living victoriously, one life challenge after another. Join these outrageously funny and multi-talented musician gal pals as they examine and ultimately celebrate the lives of today’s men and women as we all search for balance.

“Part serious song craft, part free form therapy… funny, smart, tuneful and sophisticated” Augusta Chronicle

    author: Lynn Puskarich

    WOW!! I laughed so hard that I cried and I was so touched by the other songs that I cried, too! I immediately bought 5 CDs for my friends! I plan to buy more! Thanks for being real! I hope to see you in concert. Lynn

    I love this CD so much that I am sponsoring a concert in my town in May! There is not a bad song on this CD. I have every Babes CD since the beginning of time and this is the best.

  • author: Janna

    This is my first album and it's wonderful. Funny, moving, love the harmonies. Do you give volume discounts because it makes you want to buy one for all your girlfriends?

  • The Four Bitchin' Babes
    author: Sue Waller

    This CD opened a whole new world of laughs for the women and "man" in my office. When I got it and shared it with my co-workers it was just one loud roar of laughter. These ladies are so multi-talented and have such rich voices it can't help but be a best-seller. I'm also so glad I got to seem them in person also.

  • Hormonal Imbalance
    author: Jeanne

    A great mix of songs that almost, almost make you feel like you're in the auditorium with the girls singing live!! I brought my stepdaughters with me, and we had a great time at the show.

  • author: Amanda Hensley

    I loved this cd. It was funny, I was laughing so hard listening to some of the songs. A must have cd if you love funny and upbeat songs.

    We saw your show in Manitowoc, Wisconsin, and laughed so hard I thought I would p--- my pants! You are such a talented group of women! A might crazy too. I can't wait to see you again when you come to the area. Thanks for a great evening. The CD reminds me of the fun.

    Although not as good as seeing them in person, the CD is awesome! It has several of my favorties from the show I saw. I hope the babes continue to humor and inspire the rest of us for many years to come!

  • Hormonal Imbalance
    author: Mary

    This is a wonderful CD. I am glad to have it with the new Babes, now. All the pieces are perfect. As usual the harmony is superb, the accompaniment great, and the writing and choices of subject are outstanding. I have been a Babe fan since 1995 and always look forward to new CD's and being able to see them in person.

  • right on target
    author: Marilynn

    These babes are both funny and savvy!

  • Hormonal Imbalance
    author: Ann Scarborough

    This is the greatest CD ever. I have six favorites that leave me in stitches, the rest either makes me cry or laugh hysterically.

  • Saw Babes perform. CD worth the wait.
    author: Lisa

    I saw the Babes in concert last year. What a great night! I am a musician, so I know how talented they are and what a fabulous chemistry they've produced! Their seamless travel from hilarious to heartfelt makes their music a roller coaster ride worth a million. This CD (I have downloaded other Babe music in the past) is their best yet. I hope they come out my way again soon!

  • author: Karen Hermansen`

    BUY THIS CD! I have bought four for myself and friends and family. You will cry,you will laugh, you will play it over and over. These ladies rock!!

  • love it!
    author: patty from canada

    I love this cd. I bought it because I saw you fantastic ladies (at the Rose Theatre in Brampton, Ontario, Canada) & I loved what I heard. Some songs made me cry & some made me laugh. I hope that the cd lasts long enough for me to play Pass It On at my daughters' weddings ( they're 9 & 10 now). Thank you for creating such wonderful music!

  • very entertaining
    author: chris johnson

    heard the cd on xm folk and had to have it. great job

  • Music Strikes a Chord!
    author: Karen & Cindy

    The perfect blending of voices is consistent with all Four Bitchin Babes CDs. The words to the music find the funny side of life. I had to play it twice to hear all the words, because I was laughing so hard. I can't say enough good things about it. i send a copy of it to my sister for her birthday and she played it at the office. There will be more people at her office buying CDs. The technical stuff-the CD was packaged well, shipped quickly and was received in excellent conditon.

  • Great comical, very entertaining
    author: James Clevenger

    Funny,hilarious words. Set to good music. Thank you.

  • A 100 smiles in every song!!!
    author: Lou Ann from Wisconsin

    Love the CD. I find myself smiling through the entire collection. Wonderful talented ladies with messages that we all can relate to.

  • A very hilarious show and one of the better CDs I've heard in a long time.
    author: J.W. McClure

  • It was totally awesome.
    author: Donna T

    The CD is great, I took it to work and let the girls listen they were all laughing even the young one. My daughter (24) went to the show with me and my friends and thought it was great.

  • A hilarious depiction of a woman's life experiences. I enjoyed it so much, I ordered a copy for my sister's birthday.

  • author: Edie

    The Babe's have hit another home run! From a woman of a certain age, many thanks.

    author: Diana

    Super fast shipping. Cd was just as expected.... EXCELLENT!! Saw these gals in person. AWESOME!

    author: Shirley Lay

    This was great. I saw the Four Bitchin Babes in person. This is enlightening to any menopausal women or older. Makes a great gift. The fast service was excellent.

  • You have made my play list.
    author: Brian O'Neill

    I have been a dj at WMUH-Allentown for 20 years and the Babes have been on my playlist for almost half my tenure. They good in a set with the Rev. Billy C. Wirtz.

  • This is the classiest, funniest, toe tappin' CD I own! I'm promoting it for you
    author: Carol

    This CD touches the heart, the soul AND the funnybone. It speaks so true to life while making the bad parts tolerable! Keep up the great work, keep touring and produce another CD to keep us smilin'. Thanks for all you do to brighten my drive to work!!!

  • Excellent! I already owned a copy. This is for a good friend.
    author: Nancie

    Some really fun songs, but the song that got to me, the one that plays over and over in my head, and that I've shared with many friends and family is Unconditional Love. I got this from a friend and have ordered one for another friend.

  • Great
    author: AlbertDelGarbino

    So good that I bought an extra to send to a friend!!!!

  • What a fun, wonderful CD!
    author: Karin H

    Wow - a great CD! I find myself singing "Oh, no, I'm looking for my glasses" & "Taxidermal Therapy" as I drive. Like it so much I bought a copy for my sister, one for a friend. Songs are fun, esp "The Boob fairy never came for me".

  • Totally To The Top!!!!
    author: Holly Haas

    I love all the songs on this CD. So much so that I am going to buy a copy for my mom and younger sister. My husband has to admit that he enjoys it also. He likes VIAGRA IN THE WATERS the best. I personally enjoy TAXEDERMAL THERAPY. Thankyou for putting out such a fantastic CD of songs that we all can relate to.

  • Saw the show and 3 of us couldn't wait to order the CD. Its Terrific
    author: Sharon M. Selle

    I saw the show with 4 other women and we really injoyed it. Three of us now have the CD. Keep it up Girls.....

  • I was having sympathetic hot flashes!
    author: Roger Tomhave

    The Babes have done it again! Always funny, deeply deranged, I have to hide the CD from my wife lest she gets ideas of taxidemal therapy. The Babes traverse the troubled waters of middleagedness with humor, insight, and beautiful music.

  • Stupendous
    author: Joyce

    Saw the group at a concert, really loved them. Bought the CD and am now enjoying it and remembering the concert.

  • ABOUT TIME !
    author: Kathy

    This is a great CD - I saw them in concert and this only continues the great feeling I had then. The songs were so true to life for me - a baby boomer.

  • awesome
    author: pattie

    I saw these gals in concert. Not only are they hilarious, but each one is truly gifted with a beautiful voice.

  • Blown away!
    author: JamesC

    Although I miss Megan and Camille (and Suzzy!) something terrible, Nancy and Dierdre more than make up for that void. With Dierdre's songs about growing up, Debbie's songs about life's concerns as an adult, Sallie's songs about aging and reflecting back and Nancy's songs about human values tying it all together, this CD is truly thematic and destined for the title of "classic folk album" in the future to come.

  • Love it. Heard 'Oh, no!' on the radio and had to have it.
    author: Craig

    I felt like you had been in my house with 'Oh, no' - well, until you got to the lost purse part, me bein' a guy and not having a purse, ya know. But, I'm always looking for keys, glasses. the remote, and stuff like that. And it's a real bummer going to the mall, ya know what I mean. I mean, there are a lot of cars that look a lot like mine, ya know. Wow, sometimes I just have to wait until the other cars are all gone. So, I could totally relate with this song. It's my new mantra.

  • Excellent CD!
    author: Judy

    I Love it!!!! My kids and I sing Unconditional Love every time we get in the car together... it's so uplifting. And I could listen to this CD many times over again without ever tiring of it.

  • Hard not to enjoy
    author: Gary

    I heard Hot Flash on the radio and had to buy. My wife and daughters (both over forty) really enjoyed the CD. Going to a concert in November.

  • Oh No? Oh YES!
    author: Kathy Martin

    I only had to hear the first cut to know this was a great piece of work. Ze Babes are right on the mark - whether it's the beautiful harmonies or the laugh-out-loud humor, they've given us soulfulness, insightfulness, and silliness all tied up with a bow. I just LOVE it!

  • Great CD
    author: Bill

    Heard a few songs on the radio, bought the CD. Great tunes and so funny! Loved it.

  • Loved it
    author: Lisa

    Heard Viagra in the Waters on the radio. Immediately called the station and found out where I could order the CD. Now I know about the Boob Fairy!

  • I love Four Bitchin Babes!! Funny, laugh out loud female humor!!
    author: Diane Holmes

    This CD has so many great songs... you have to buy at least 2-- one for the car and one for home; nothing can releive your stress like listening to cheerleader or hot flash in the middle of a crazy stressfilled day!! I recommend this and all their CD's ... almost as good as being there! (Gr8 for gifts too)

  • I loved it! It was almost like being there in person again!
    author: Janie

    I was at the live concert. The CD brings all the fun memories from being there back and more laughs when my friends listen. I plan on giving several as Christmas presents this year. Thanks BABES!

  • 6 Words
    author: Sue in NH

    Only need 6 words of recommendation....buy it, buy it, buy it! (I guess that would be 6 words and 3 punctuation marks). Seriously, this is one of the best commedy albums I've heard in a very long time. Mixed in are some heart-felt, more serious looking-at-life numbers, making this a very well rounded and superior compilation from The Babes.

  • I play it over and over. Love it!
    author: Sue Daniels

    I enjoy this CD immensely! There is not a bad song on it.

  • A must have for any girls night get together!
    author: Donna

    This is a definite MUST HAVE for any 'girls night get together!' True to life songs both hilarious and heart felt!

  • Fun fun fun
    author: Beth Fleming

    The 4 Bitchin Babes do a great job of motivating and encouraging us "older" gals. Great fun. I give as birthday gifts.

  • Another Winner from the Babes
    author: 4thof4

    Great selection of songs, beautiful harmonies, witty lyrics, touching lyrics, thoughtful lyrics, hilarious lyrics...and did I mention the beautiful harmonies? There's nothing not to LOVE about Hormonal Imbalance.

  • I love this CD.
    author: Sue

    I am a woman past thirty and this CD speaks to me. It is fun, funny and uplifting. I listen to it while I work and my work in turn becomes a little more whimsical and fun. I would highly recommend this CD.

  • author: Linda Vukovich

    Was almost as good as hearing them perform the songs live.

  • Absolutely Fantastic, better than chocolate maybe!
    author: Keri O

    This CD will make any woman in a bad mood smile. Pour a glass of wine, get out the chocolate and put the babes on.These women cover every event us divas go through whether we want to or not. Way to go Babes!

  • Excellent! I hum these tunes all day long!
    author: nap

    The songs on this CD truly represent today's women. It's great to be able to not only laugh with the Babes about life's experiences, but feel touched by the sentimental messages, as well as being taken aback by their talent! Wow! This is a CD that I will be listening to over and over and over...
