Intro How Deep Is Your Love? Nobody Else in the World But You My Funny Valentine Supercar Wolf at the Door intro sung by Sean Altman Fallin' Over You Do You Trust Me? Car Wash |
Boston-based Contemporary a cappella mixed quartet (2 men, 2 women)
All About Buford came onto our radar screen only recently, when they won the
Harmony Sweeps Boston Regional. The group gave an excellent performance at the
Sweeps Finals, and "Supercar" is a very good CD. There's a smoky, street-savvy,
manic edge to all these songs (all arrangements by the group), a lot of it coming
from brilliant vocal percussionist Adeel Pandith. The first cut is an amazing
hardly-recognizable cover of Jonatha Brooke's "How Deep Is Your Love," the second
is a cross between Don Henley's "Nobody Else In The World But You" and Stevie
Wonder's "Superstitious," that totally works. "My Funny Valentine" is a moody,
smoky gem, Patty Larkin's "Wolf at the Door" and Norman Whitfield's "Car Wash"
fit nicely into the mix. Sean Altman does a quirky little intro to Buford's
strong cover of Sean's and Billy Straus' "Falling Over You." Our favorite cuts
are originals by group member Taunia Soderquist, "Supercar" and "Do You Trust
Me" (from the first CD), songs of the street with roots in rap. As the live
intro guy says at the beginning of the CD, "this group is right in the middle
of the Boston a cappella club scene, and they're wicked hot!"
