Where's my party? Heh heh.From the same label that brought you Neko Case's Fox Confessor Brings the Flood—Mint Records. The band, Duplex, are mish mash of family and friends and it feels just like that: hokey, funny, adorable, familar, poppy and rather enjoyable. I dig this CD a whole lot and that is why it is here, on my 50th post... the post that should have been yesterday (I haven't missed a weekday posting in a whole long time) but perhaps I'll post tomorrow too. Yesterday just got away from me. Maybe some of you have felt that of late, oh yes, it's the wild siren call of spring break and my little one is home and it's been a most enjoyable yet most tiring week. Playdates a go-go. But back to Duplex and their album Ablum. It's just a sunny afternoon with the kids in audio format. It has the trumpet player who plays with AC Newman, someone from P:ano and another person or two from the Beekeepers and also a few kids and teens. Lots of hand claps (and I love that) and shout out choruses (love that too.) Oh yeah, and it's Canadian. They sure know how to party and make music up there in that northern province.
Duplex, "Ya Mama"
Duplex, "Hanu"
Duplex, "Mr. Slim"

Congrats on the 50th!
And thanks for the Ablum coverage -- I've been wondering about that album for awhile now... your good review makes me more interested in hearing it...
As a 50th gift...look for a write up on coolmompicks.com tomorrow (Tuesday). (Tried to email you but it kept bouncing back.)
