I don’t generally share reviews of my one-day-a-year band, the Monkey Power Trio, on this site. I’d like to say that its because I’m modest. It has more to do, however, with the fact that the reviews are, almost without exception, embarrassingly negative. But, every so often, for reasons that I can’t quite understand, someone, like the late, great John Peel, comes forward to declare us worthy of attention. Today, it was some college kid from Stanford, who, in what I can only imagine to be a desperate attempt to demonstrate just how far outside of the mainstream he is, gave us a 10 on a scale from 1 to 10. (I’m assuming that 10 is the highest.) Here’s what this, clearly high, reviewer had to say.
Personally, I’d give our last effort a 4, but I was there, and I know how little work went into it.
If you want to, you can judge for yourself by clicking here and giving the record a listen. And, if you like it, you can even purchase a copy for your collection!
And, if, after that, you’d like to hear more positive stuff about the band, another California radio station broadcast a 4-hour special about us a few years ago, which you can find here.
