With names like Scat,Shorty,Dino,Digits and Rock It´s not suprising to discover that the Penthouse Playboys fancy themselves as ultra cool hipsters. Fortunately the dozen numbers on the disc ´´Casino Lounge´´ soundly support that image.´´Black Out´´is a moody melody with slinky keyboards and a wailing trombone,while the tounge-in-cheek ´´Tony the Tuna´´ set to the melody ´´Santa Clause is comming to Town ´´ is reminisent of an old ´´Mad magazine´´ send up.
On a whole the Cd is Swanky,Swingin´ and Satisfying.

The Penthouse Playboys influnces are those of the Vegas greats Like Bobby Darin,Nat King Cole and of course the ´´Rat Pack´´.This is an act that prides itself at crooning to a smoth one like nobodys buisness like nobodys buisness at the same time laying down a Jazzy groove of stopmin´ Rhythm and Blues.
