| | Dr. Demento: 20th Anniversary Collection - The Greatest Novelty Records Of All Time CD (4 Customer Reviews)
Performers include: Cab Calloway, "Weird Al" Yankovic, D.J. Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince, Spike Jones.
Dr. Demento 20th Anniversary Collection: The Greatest Novelty Records of All Time gathers two discs' worth of highlights from the five-volume Dr. Demento Presents series, as well as some of the good doctor's other favorite novelty singles. Anyone familiar with Demento's show will instantly recognize the Firm's "Star Trekkin'," Barnes & Barnes' "Fish Heads," and Darrell Hammond's "Wappin'," while Bobby "Boris" Pickett's "Monster Mash" and Sheb Wooley's "Purple People Eater" are among the novelty classics that have become part of the mainstream pop culture canon. Weird Al Yankovic's "Eat It," Ray Stevens' "Gitarzan," Julie Brown's "The Homecoming Queen's Got a Gun," Steve Martin's "King Tut," and Allan Sherman's "Hello Mudduh, Hello Fadduh! (A Letter From Camp)" are some of the other highlights of this fun collection, which is arguably the only novelty rock album most people will ever need. ~ Heather Phares Dr. Demento: 20th Anniversary Collection - The Greatest Novelty Records Of All Time Music Dr. Demento: 20th Anniversary Collection - The Greatest Novelty Records Of All Time Songs Dr. Demento: 20th Anniversary Collection - The Greatest Novelty Records Of All Time Music Review Average Rating: (4.8 out of 5 stars)  Fantastic cd

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No Never had to buy it , because
we are watching it on an old VCR tape recorded off Comedy Central in 1992. Seeing Alan Sherman... Am so glad we're hoarders and savers.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No LOL
It's really difficult to find good CDs to replace all my old 45s and LPs, especially the ones that contained comical single hits that aren't produced anymore, but this CD is loaded with a bunch of the old single "funnies" that provided "lots of laughs" during my high school days and later years.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No  Good Collection
If you gotta have silly songs, gotta check out this collection. The Good Doctor is where Weird Al got his start, so if you want something along that line without being some weird frizzy haired Jewish guy (believe me, I actually do like Mr. Yankovich), check it out.

EARTHLING was nominated for 1998 Grammy Awards for Best Rock Album and Best Alternative Music Performance. "Dead Man Walking" was nominated for a 1998 Grammy Award for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance.
Jumping on the post-grunge industrial bandwagon with Outside didn't successfully rejuvenate David Bowie's credibility or sales, so he switched his allegiance to techno and jungle for the follow-up, Earthling. While jungle is a more appropriate fit than industrial, the resulting music is nearly as awkward. Though he often gets the sound of jungle right, the record frequently sounds as if the beats were simply grafted on top of pre-existing songs. Never are the songs broken open by a new form; they are fairly conventional Bowie songs with fancy production. Fortunately, Bowie sounds rejuvenated by this new form, and songs like "Little Wonder" and "Seven Years in Tibet" are far stronger ...
