Highly original and extremely well executed, this a wonderful cover's album with the great curated tunes from Wes Anderson films. It gives me all the feels from my memories of the fabulous movies for which they were chosen. Made me want to go back and watch all the films. Great cover versions that offered unique takes on the originals.
