If you have been listening to Dr. Demento for 25 years, you've no doubt tired of many of the items on this 36-song collection, many of which made his Top Ten or Funny Five for weeks (or years) running. But if you want a bunch of his top novelty tunes all in one place, here 'tis, going from pre-W.W. II sillies like Benny Bell's "Shaving Cream" to Spike Jones to Leonard Nimoy to Tiny Tim to They Might Be Giants. Some of the cuts of more recent vintage, like those by Weird Al Yankovic and Barnes & Barnes, come off as too deliberately weird/stupid in the company of Tom Lehrer and Stan Freberg, but the Doctor has proven over the years that there's an audience for them. Highlight: the Detergents' mid-'60s "Leader of the Pack" satire, "Leader of the Laundromat," a Top 20 hit which may have been an overlooked influence on early Frank Zappa. ~ Richie Unterberger

Personnel: Doodles Weaver, Paul Wynn (vocals).

Audio Remasterer: Bob Fisher .

Liner Note Authors: Dr. Demento; Gary Peterson.

Standard hails from Northern California. This group of musicians brings a chemistry and maturity to the stage that is beyond their years. Their music and live performances have made audiences ask: "Who is this band?"Standard formed in November of 2001. This, however, was not the real begginning. Russ Martellaro (lead vocals/acoustic guitar) and Chris Copeland (electric guitar/backing vocals) had been playing music together since they were in high school. Russ started learning how to play classical guitar when he was 8 years old. While attending Vacaville High School he was influenced by the music of Papa Roach and Incubus who were barley regional bands at the time. The first live concert he ever attended were those two bands at the Vacaville Community Center. Inspired by both of those bands' success he had always subconsciously wanted to be in a band. He finaly picked up the electric guitar and taught himself songs that he actually liked to listen to. After graduating high school he attended a Dave Matthews Band concert for the first time. Emmediately afterwards he taught himslef how to play most of their songs, this changed his style drastically. Slowly learning to play these songs and sing at the same time he developed enough courage to play at a small café in downtown Vacaville.He decided to ask his old high school friend Chris Copeland to play the show with him. Chris' style of playing complimented Russ very well, they instantly knew there was something special.Chris Copeland picked up his first guitar at age 13 in rebellion towards piano and trumpet lessons. He wanted to play an instrument that his parents didn't pick for him. His early influences included U2 and Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers but being from Vacaville he had also been going to Papa Roach concerts since they had a trombone player. After high school he moved up to Chico to attend Chico State. He was initially frustrated with the music scene in Chico, it was hard finding people interested in the same type of music. A year later Russ moved up to Chico. Russ and Chris were now able to continue doing what they had been doing back in Vacaville except now they began writing their own material. They started playing several shows around Chico at places like Moxies and LaSalles. In August of 2000 Todd Jansen ...
