Today saw the release of the album "SuperSmall" by German band Mardi Gras.BB, on Boutique, a Universal Jazz Germany subsidiary (cat. no. 159 014-2).



The album features a rather weird cover of "Erotic City", in "mardi gras" style. My local record store was playing the CD, checking if it was any good. Neither of us were paying too much attention, until I started realising the lyrics were familiar. Yes, the cover version is that much different.



They are currently touring:
