Baseballs' Strike gold

○○○○●

ALREADY a massive hit across Europe, The Baseballs are striking out at the UK charts.
Now the group pitch pop hit after pop hit at the listener, but they do it with a curveball - every track here is a cover, but in the 1950s rock and roll style.
Can you imagine Elvis singing J Lo? Eddie Cochran covering Beyonce?
Sure, it's a novelty idea - yet another Mike Flowers Pops type act - but strangely it works, especially on the tracks it really shouldn't, like Usher's Love In This Club or The Pussycat Dolls' Don't Cha.
Maybe the German group will become major league over here just yet.
