The comic uses original lyrics and pre-existing tunes to poke fun at television shows and consumer items, to send-up the kids and generally riff on early and mid-'60s American pop culture. On tracks like 'Pop Hates the Beatles' and 'Crazy Downtown,' his subject is the generation gap. 'Al 'n Yetta' portrays a TV-dependent couple while 'Lotsa Luck' describes the complicated hassles of dealing with faulty TVs and new-fangled tape recorders.

Buy Now	I'm Telling You for the Last Time (more) »rank: 5240 by: Jerry Seinfeld : :On Jerry Seinfeld's debut CD, he already sounds sick of his material. Of course, the point of the performance that it captures--the HBO special I'm Telling You for the Last Time--was to perform the routine one last time and then retire it forever. This recording was taped just a couple of months after Seinfeld went off the air, and the crowd sounds like it's jonesing for a fix--they laugh at everything, even Seinfeld's setup lines ('So what's with the cabdrivers and the BO?'). Still, Seinfeld's humor--that now-familiar observation from a satisfyingly elitist point of view--delivers. But after all the late-night talk-show appearances, the ...	Buy Now	Pull My Finger: Jingle Smells (more) »rank: 1927 by: Various Artists : :Given this album's title and the fact that its 'songs' include 'We Wish You a Smelly Christmas,' 'Silent Butt Deadly Night' (a highlight), and 'Auld Gas Syne,' you may already know all you need to know--for better or for worse--in making a purchase decision. But this reviewer would like to attest that, while the humor herein may be far from highbrow, it can certainly liven up a dreary fall afternoon in the office. Think 'white elephant gift,' one that's sure to help you win friends and alienate people. --Wendy Pardate
