That’s Totally Random #11: Scott Bradlee’s Post Modern Jukebox

So you say you hate modern pop songs?   Think that it’s just the song writing that sucks?

These people prove that you can take lyrics  from a phone book and make them sound incredible with a dash of talent and interesting musical arrangements.    The styles Post Modern Jukebox uses are so varied that there is something that will appeal to everyone.   There’s even a couple in there using glasses and a clarinet.   I guarantee there will be at least on cover that will make you go WOW.

Auto tune on everything?    Get with the program record companies.    Imperfections give music character!
