Be the first to review this product

The 2001 men's barbershop quartet champs released their second (and likely last) CD on the eve of the 2004 International, and on the heels of their announced retirement. So pick up this true gem as fast as you can! The arrangements by David Wright and Jake lead Mark Hale are simply fabulous, and the musicality of their performances range from stellar to breathtaking. Among the barbershop thrillers are ballad "Too Marvelous for Words," championship-winning "The Old Piano Roll Blues" and "Look Me Up When You're In Dixie." Other highlights include exciting "Something's Coming" from West Side Story and "Bill Bailey Montage," which puts the venerable standard through various music filters: standard barbershop, doo-wop, sixties rock, 90s power ballad, classical, even hip hop!
