Discography

Unforgetable

You'll Never Go Wrong With a Son Sound of Music Medley You Made Me Love You Alley Cat Unforgettable Your Mother Should Know Medley Atlanta's Jumpin' (This Jouing Is Jumpin') There Goes My Heart Ida / Ain't She Sweet Medley Nice Work if You can Get It America Medley

Excalibur's third CD and we think, their best. Considered to be a contemporary barbershop group, they have placed consistently in the top ten in competition. With arrangements by Greg Volk, whose distinctive style has been in demand by countless quartets of late (including Acoustix), the showpiece of this recording has to be the "Sound Of Music" medley. Featuring a series of amazing and inventive transitions, it's inspired, particularly "Edelweiss" and "My Favorite Things." The title track illustrates the group's forte, interpreting standards; however, they also include competition-friendly arrangements of songs such as "Ida," "Ain't She Sweet" and "Atlanta's Jumpin'." Finally, the "America" medley ends on a stirring note - is there some kind of award for "most challenging tag"? Salute!
