Double 180gm translucent gold colored vinyl LP pressing. 2020 collection. Between 2006 and 2013, alternative rock artist Matthew Sweet and Bangles singer/guitarist Susanna hoffs released three collaborative albums covering their favourite songs from the '60s, '70s and '80s. This compilation brings together 30 of the very best tracks from across the Under The Covers series. "For me, making these recordings just felt like two music nerds getting together and having a really good time playing and recording songs that we worship," says Hoffs, "they're kind of a love letter from us as fans. They're like the equivalent of an old school mix tape that you would give someone you're crazy about. There's something incredibly romantic about it." Highlights include the rare promo tracks 'On My Way Home' and 'Sorry'. Includes guest appearances by Lindsey Buckingham ('Second Hand News'), Dhani Harrison ('Beware Of Darkness') and Van Dyke Parks ('It's All Over Now, Baby Blue').

This is perfect for hour-long car rides.
One CD per hour trip. The songs are excellently done and just plain fun to listen to. Pick it up.

Worth every penny
Hearing these two icons from the 90's sing together on all of these covers was simply AMAZING!
E**!
A new fave CD
If this CD doesn't bring a smile, check your hearing...and your pulse. It may become near impossible to liberate this disc from your player...it's that good. A diverse and brilliant compilation, sung with joy, and executed by great musicians faithfully recreating the tracks you already love. No-brainer. Great roadtrip tunes too!!

I agree
I agree with the others who reviewed this wonderful platter, what a sublime listen! If you are craving some well-crafted pop, grab this, it is a "Sweet" bargain. They even cover the great Marshall Crenshaw

Love the cover versions
Susannah and Matthew do a great job on two cd's of their favorite cover songs. I'm a fan of both artists, and this one flows and sounds great!

Decent cover Album
There are some good songs on this album but you have to be a fan of many artists to like them all. They do cover the songs brilliantly and the sound is fantastic.Its worth a purchase even if you only like a few of the covers.

スザンナホフスの声が素晴らし過ぎるのと楽曲が全てにおいてマッチし過ぎている。
スザンナの艶っぽく可愛い声に癒されますね。 反対にマシュースイートの男ヴォーカルは要らないです。これが無ければ５つ星でした。 残念！ なぜスザンナは彼を選んでしまったのか！！完全な選択間違いです。 誰か上の者に言われて作らされたのか？

Suzanna Hoffa’s cd /double cd set
I bought this double cd primerely for the Hoffa’s cd As she sings lots of classic pop songs and is worth the price of the cd on its own. The second cd is also very good.It’s a great 2 cd set which is great sing a long cd for the car.

Great cover versions
A myriad of cover versions of songs from the 60's, 70's and 80's smothered in the honey that is Susanna Hoff's voice. Great value, just buy it!!
