True to its name, "By Request" features audience favorites from Tonic Sol-fa's illustrious career. In fact, three of the songs on this album were featured on Garrison Keillor's Prairie Home Companion radio show in September 2004. But these aren't just re-masters of old tunes - some of these are redone and given new life by these great-sounding guys from Minnesota.
The album opens with a wicked groovy "29 Ways to My Baby's Door" - we dare you to sit still for that one! Bright, poppy "Cecilia" just makes you feel good all over; new original "Chances" is reminiscent of a great Don Henley ballad; country gets a solid nod with a great "Sold (The Grundy County Auction Incident") - this is one of the best covers of this tune we've heard! Marty Robbins fans will sigh over sweet "El Paso" and kids and grownups alike can dance and reminisce to "Scooby Doo, Where Are You? (remix)"
One of the best things about this CD (besides the wonderful singing, of course) is that it's an enhanced CD. Put it in your CD-Rom drive and you get access to a special web page, featuring downloads like a desktop wallpaper, photos, and a promotional video.
