Another intriguing project from University Of The King. We kick off with a unique remix twist of "Lollipop, Lollipop" (the 1958 version made famous by Ronald & Ruby). Next up for the idiosyncratic University Of The King treatment is "Sandman", a remix of the 1954 hit by The Chordettes. Next, the Temptations classic, "My Girl" from 1965 is given the makeover treatment. Then "With These Hands", a 1967 Temptations track is given the shouting treatment. A personal favourite remix, "The Sound of Music" track "Favourite Things" (made famous by Julie Andrews in the classic movie) is given the humorous treatment with much surrealness. We're then invited and entreated to have a "Very Merry Christmas" in the downtempo "Christmas Bonus". An eccentric set of covers from the Birmingham-based iconoclasts.
