Wonderful! It brought back fond memories of times gone by and evenings wasted but where is 'The John Birch Society' or 'They're Rioting in Africa' ? Can anybody direct me to recordings of those songs?
- Judith Siegel, 07/20/2009, USA Classic old-fashioned humor, some of which has regained a completely new relevance.
- Brian A Skiff, 11/01/1997, USA Some songs wear surprisingly well after almost four decades: 'The Elements' is brilliant; the parody of 'Bright College Days' remains true; and 'Poisoning Pigeons in the Park' is nearly as startling as ever.
- Charles O Hartman, 04/22/1997, USA A great CD. Tom Lehrer is a great satirist.
- Kevin Larose, 03/28/1997, USA Full title is: Evening Wasted with Tom Lehrer
Setting his bitterly caustic lyrics against nice bouncy piano, Tom's recordings spread like wildfire in the mid-to-late-'50s. Recorded live at Harvard, this musical-comedy classic from '59 includes We Will All Go Together When We Go; Poisoning Pigeons in the Park; The Masochism Tango; In Old Mexico, and more! |
