...out for you). I found Bad News funnier than Spinal Tap, but again I think it comes down to personal preference.
Is there anything extra to be had from buying CD, if you already own previous albums? Well, no. If you've followed the band, from the eighties, then you'll no doubt have everything already. The album is effectively a re-release of Bad News' Bootleg album with some B-sides from the singles thrown in.

Warriors Of Ghengis Khan - "Baby, baby, baby, baby, babyyyyyy!"
Bohemian Rhapsody - Bohemian Crapsody
Bad News - Den's lead solo!

If you like Heavy Metal, immature toilet humour and willy jokes, you must own this.
