This CD is the kind of thing you dream about! I love 'The Little Rascals' and the music was always memorable. Usually I collect original recordings only, but this is actually better than having the original recordings. The Beau Hunks have done a very special and incredible tribute to the Rascal's music. By using period instruments and microphones this band has painstakingly put together perfect reproductions of the original songs minus crackles,pops and production standards from the 1920's and 30's! It's nothing short of amazing and the CD is loaded to boot! I'm glad I bought this when it was in print. There was a second disc release called 'On With The Show' Which includes another 50 tracks of the remaining material. This is a fantastic disc!

Never thought I could ever find a collection like this. Buy this one over the later (1995) released "Beau Hunks play more Little Rascals hits"....but get both if possible. 2nd CD has dupicates from 1st CD...but also has quite a few little known tunes than the first.
First heard this CD in 1997 when visiting Disney World. It was playing in one of their gift shops...and had to ask the cashier to show me the cover to find out who it was.
Amazing job by these musicians....but the credit all goes to Leroy Shields...the original composer of these tunes.
You will definately enjoy this collection of songs.

Do you ever hear a song and associate it distinctly with a particular movie or occurance? There is nothing like music to bring back memories, and the memories that this music brings back is always happy. Each song is rather short in length which helps the CD flow rather well. However, each one has its own distinct melody that you'll probably find yourself humming throughout your day (if you haven't already).
What is especially exciting is the booklet. It contains information about the usage of each song in The Little Rascals and other Hal Roach comedies, especially the Laurel and Hardy films. There are many photographs as well.
This is an excellent piece for any fan of the Rascals and nostalgia. All of the tracks are instrumental and faithfully reconstructed. It is equally enjoyable to listen concentratedly or to play the CD as background music.

Buy this one before it is out of stock! Purchased it for $50 & worth every penny! Compliments ON WITH THE SHOW with new tunes in each, so you will not get a same tune in neither,so many sound bites they could have done a 3rd CD! Beau Hunks have done another flawless job! MUST BUY! Will create fond memories of those wonderful innocent times. Brian Wilson of the BEACH BOYS loved this CD!!!Plus, the booklet designating where the tunes originated & history of Leroy Shields plus pics of those films!! Worth the price!!

This is one terrific album for anyone who likes movie music, old comedies, or just tuneful tunes from a long-ago time. You can almost smell the popcorn. Why anyone would go to all this work to recreate these songs is completely beyond me, but I'm delighted they did.
