Not Just "Those Blue Pentium Guys"
| Author's Rating: |
|
Pros: Upbeat, fun music. These guys are unique and it works for them!
Cons: Not enough music. I was left wanting more.
The Bottom Line:
Buy this CD! See them LIVE! But definitely buy the CD. It's one of the best purchases I've ever made.
The first time I ever heard Blue Man Group, my boyfriend was watching The Tonight Show, and they were musical guests. I took an instant liking to their music and resolved to buy their CD. I was very impressed once I heard the entire CD. Blue Man Group's music is innovative, fun, and upbeat. Their use of "instruments" (a lot of PVC pipe) is ingenius! They have perfected the art of music.
Seeing them perform live just enhances the CD. They are funny, and again, I was dazzled by their perfection of the use of the instruments they have created. You have to hear the plethora of sounds they can produce with their instruments. And their putting together of the sounds to create music is better than the groups people often compare them to: ie Stomp, Tap Dogs.
