The Puppini Sisters: Hollywood (Decca)
COMPETITION for the Forties tribute slot seems to grow ever hotter, but the Puppini Sisters (they are unrelated Stephanie O’Brien, Kate Mullins and Marcella Puppini) have the ability to stay ahead of the rest with style, glamour and plenty of originality.
Not many would think of using a musical hand saw (Tom Hodges) in Moon River from Breakfast at Tiffany’s.
None of the 11 selections are from the Forties and the French song Moi Je Joue seems to have no Hollywood movie pedigree at all, but the sparkling results will delight the audience at The Sage Gateshead tonight.
