Constructed like a fake soundtrack, The Money Spyder successfully captures the flavor of '60s spy films with its blend of jazzy rhythms, swelling Hammond organs, and dark and flavorful guitars. The band achieves a Booker T. & the MG's-meets-the-Ventures sound on this set of instrumentals, with a bit of Lalo Schifrin and film noir jazz thrown into the mix. Marketed as part of Hollywood Records' Acid Jazz line, it could also benefit from the lounge/space-age pop revival (though JTQ have been doing this sort of thing for years).
