it,s nutty walt on again

Advantages: includes all best known newhart sketches
Disadvantages: some items not so strong

This C D contains some great material,Newhart was and still is a one off,no one does these kinds of monologue's these days and even back then,most of these sketches come from the early sixty's,only Victor Borge comes to mind.Newharts idea's come from real life,in many ways he was an early leader in what became known as,"observational comerdy"although he is not as P.C. as most comedian's today,as in picking on women drivers in the Driving Instructors ...
...are based on historic event's,such as Abe Lincoln vs Madison Avenue,Introduing Tobacco To Civilization and Merchandising The Wright Brothers.All are bacisially Bob Newhart talking to himself about thing's he finds humour in,that most others would not be able to find anything funny in at all.These subjects include bomb disposal,flying,bus driving,retirement and jumping off buildings. I am not going to list every track as there are 10 on CD1 and 14 ...

Review of Something Like This - Bob Newhart

FOOD, FOOD...FOOD!

Advantages: funny, entertaining
Disadvantages: may offend some people

...those novelty albums, you know the ones where you hear the tune correctly but the words have been replaced Weird Al Yankovic is a popular name in the world of parodies. Until 5 years ago I was not a fan of these songs, in fact I had never heard them. I think the first song I heard was 'Which Backstreet Boy is Gay' which had me in fits of laughter. I was in a mate's car one night, he was evidently into this type of music and was listening to a rather ...
...young age and was into the parodies of Allan Sherman. Anyway Weird Al Yankovic has grown up today to be one of those artists you either love - or hate. Personally I have quite a liking towards his music they never fail to make me giggle so are perfect for that rainy, depressing day where you need a slight chuckle. *****OTHER SONGS***** I am not going to go into all of them on here because this is a review about the 'food' album. I will give you ...

Review of The Food Album - Weird Al Yankovic

How much more black could this be? and the answer is none.

Advantages: You can turn this one all the way up to 11.
Disadvantages: Unfortunately this is not a real band.

...British heavy metal band released this collection of songs from the albums soundtrack as homage to the “Smell the Glove” album that they were promoting through the film. Due to the album being released as a soundtrack it never really received any great success chart wise and was mainly just purchased by those who, like me are great fans of the film. Now firstly let me start by saying that if you haven’t seen the film that accompanies this album it ...
...at least after you’ve read this anyway.) Like I’ve said the band themselves are completely factious everything from who they are to their previous career which was made up only for the purpose of the film. Just who are “Tap”? The main members of the band consist of some quite well known American actors, that’s right I did just type American as once you hear them talking in the film or singing on this album you would swear they where English. ...

Review of This Is Spinal Tap (Original Soundtrack) [Remastered] - Spinal Tap

Don't Laugh At Me Cause I Am A Reviewer.

Advantages: Buy this to listen to TWO great nostalgic songs.
Disadvantages: There are 20 awful songs as well!

...And My Gal" is also very good. In between, most of the other songs are slow tempo dreary sounding ballads set to mediocre string arrangements or very forgettable massively dated sounding ditty ballads accompanied by big band brass based arrangements. There are also a few cringe worthy duets that are also totally forgettable and some other rubbish songs where the instrumentation is just light percussion and a double bass. Many of the songs on this ...
...the 1950s. He is an iconic figure to this day in Albania. This is because his films were the only Western culture films that were permitted to be shown in Albania during the dictatorship of Enver Hoxha. If we were back in the days of the Cassette listening to this album would be torturous as you'd be constantly fast forwarding the tape. However, because this is a CD it’s an album worth having just to be able to play "Don't Laugh At Me (Cause I'm ...

Review of Very Best Of Norman Wisdom, The - Norman Wisdom

We are but men! Rock !!!!

Advantages: Great band, great vocals and music.
Disadvantages: Some weak links

...Kyle Gass who make up Tenacious D, you shouldn't give a crap about much, especially bad language etc. If you are this person, like me then this CD is for you. I have no edited the lyrics so there will be some swear words there. Just a warning. The Album A brilliant album, which isn't for everyone, this is why: Track 1- Keilbasa Even the first lines of the song show you that they don't care, it's showing them coming up with a song, ...
...this song got me into Tenacious D, such a brilliant song. Jack starts off just talking, with Kyle playing a great riff, there's some singing but it's mainly a spoken song. This song was their first UK release and this is what got them their success, and rightly so. The lyrics are amazing, and the fact that they managed to get the likes of Dave Grohl from the Foo Fighters (and Nivarna), shows their success. This song is just tongue in cheek throughout ...
