The Odd Couple: Gnarls Barkley

I know Crazy was a huge, huge sick-to-the-gills-with-it hit, but give this album a go anyway! I love listening to Cee-Lo Green’s fantastic gospel gravelly-edged vocals. I love the funky drive of Danger Mouse’s hip-hop infused, groove-based instrumentation. The Odd Couple is a listenable album that becomes more interesting and likable the more you listen to it. Ignore the hype: it’s a great funky and laid back vibe that moves from bouncy pop into a smoother, rounder warmer feeling album. It definitely has broader appeal than the more experimental St Elsewhere and given the time will really grow on the listener.
