  35. Release Notes:
  36.  
  37. "University A Cappella!" makes glee club suddenly seem hip. Longtime
  38. campus favourite Folds combed through 250 video performances of his
  39. songs submitted by college a cappella groups, then travelled around the
  40. country to record his favourites.
  41.  
  42. It sounds as though everyone involved had a lot of fun. The creative
  43. arrangements showcase Folds' sense of humour and gift for melody in
  44. ways a rock album can't. In lieu of instruments, singers keep the beat
  45. with such phrases as "ba-da-ba-da," "noo-noo-noo-noo,"
  46. "dig-a-duh-bump," "doo-bah-dah-doo," "jim-jim-jim-jim" and - Folds'
  47. favourite, no doubt - "dong-dong."
  48.  
  49. Fourteen groups contribute, including a marvellous coed high school
  50. ensemble from Newton, Mass., and Folds overdubs his own vocals on two
  51. of the best efforts, "Boxing" and "Effington." There's doo-wop, jazz,
  52. choral music and even frat rock that's R-rated. Kids will be kids.
