Gigolo Aunts - Flippin' Out - 1994



This Boston foursome have a varied approach to power-pop; lead guitarist Phil Hurley appears to have mastered hard rock (the catchy "Bloom"), moving ballads (the title track), and pop songs ("Mrs. Washington," a close parody of "Mrs. Robinson") with an ease that gives this album its consistency. Dave Gibbs' sugar-sweet vocals and backing harmonization are the perfect accompaniment. -[John Bush] AMG

  1. I really enjoyed their 'minor chords and major themes' but never got around to getting this one yet, thanks for allowing me to listen.

  2. FYI

    both pts appear to link to the same file. part 2 is probably missing.
