Baby Boot Box - Archipelago

Another great band with a strange name, and as for the album title an archipelago is a chain or cluster of islands. Baby Boot Box is a snappy, jazzy, pop quartet out of Connecticut, an extremely enjoyable collection of six songs, whose word play and melodies kind of reminded me of vintage Barenaked Ladies. G. Russell Boot's vocal stylings definitely gave me an Ed Robinson vibe at times, the playful sort of tone of a man who enjoys what he does. Like all great EPs though, Archipelago is unfortunately short, your grooving one minute and the next...you're just not. Still, an enjoyable album that's just a joy to listen to.
