If there is a single group that really helped jump start the a cappella movement - as well as give new perception to the genre - it's The Bobs. With tongues planted firmly in cheeks, The Bobs have been packing venues for more than two decades with programs that feature clever cover songs and a wealth of outrageous originals. Combining vocal mastery with irreverent humor, this quartet of Bay Area musicians are ASCAP-award winners and Grammy-noms for vocal arranging, and they are, without doubt, at the top of the list of a cappella ensembles performing and recording in America today.

      Each one of them individually can carry a tune, but they don't blend well. There were a few songs that I enjoyed-- mostly those lead by the base singer, Richard--but most of them weren't something I liked. The group vocal blend wasn't strong. As one of my companions put it, "just because you *can* make a sound, doesn't mean you *should*". They also talked waaay too much, they thought they were funnier than they are, at least to me. Overall, we were disappointed and left at intermission. Collapse
