This is what Wired Magazine said in their review: Slippery as a sizzlin' sausage,
the nine-to-thirteen-piece Club Foot Orchestra weaves a complex web of melody and texture around
skitchy polyrhythms and butt-thumpin' shuffles. Originally a dance band, the Orchestra currently
performs live soundtracks to silent films, but this re- issue includes their first two LPs and
then some - a digital document of loopily energetic stuff: sharp arrangements, crisp drumming, and
the occasional fanciful, fluttering solo. Perfect for the swank occasion or the twenty-hour drive,
this is egalitarian neo-populist swing for the next millennium.
