DOO-WOPS & HOOLIGANS: The Albums, 2011.


06/Eleanor Friedberger/Last Summer

Last Summer. Brooklyn, New York. Snapshots from a time well spent getting sick from the Cyclone, waiting to pick up in the park without cell phones, and so on, and so on, starring Eleanor Friedberger. Postcards from a Glitter Gold Year in the city that never sleeps; A giddy, effervescent affair whose joy in reminiscing translates itself to the music as well. Crisp, 70’s FM rock at its finest that lives and dies by the woman looking back and sharing her tales. Full of wit (or sorrow when the time calls for it), Eleanor is clear, charming, and engaging, making Last Summer a look back you won’t mind revisiting again, and again, and again.
