So going to work on a Saturday is no small feat. To make my self feel better, I decided to put on my album for a day. And, of course, this was the day that the album was called Bongo Rock.
So many bongos. No vocals, just pure bongos for about an hour. And while it sounds like this album might have achieved pulling-out-hair status, it wasn't half bad. Seriously.
For an album made up of entirely the same instrument, it actually had a surprising amount of variety. Not only that, but the tunes are catchy. They also do a cover of "In A Gadda Da Vidda". Bet you never listened to a bongo cover of a famous song. I have!
Overall, it could have absolutely sucked but it actually was relatively decent.
RATING: 3/5
