| | Jimmy Durante EMI Comedy Classics CD - Import Jimmy Durante Discography of CDs
2008 collection of many of Durante's great comedy songs, performed live before radio audiences at the height of his popularity in the late '40s. If any performer can truly be said to have carved out his own comedic turf, made a huge success out of it lasting over several decades, while completely owning that piece of turf lock, stock and barrel, then that performer would have to be Jimmy Durante. There never has been - nor is there likely ever to be - a stylistic school of Durante; the man and his character are of one piece and ingrained in the national consciousness to the extreme. Anyone foolish enough to start appropriating any part of his act would be immediately branded as a slavish imitator - someone just merely 'doing Durante' - while always being doomed to comparison with the one and only real deal "Schnozzola" and again, falling well short of the mark.

EMI Comedy Classics album
$15.89 More times than not, Columbia/Legacy's Essential collections are stellar overviews. Boasting a two-and-a-half-hour running time and 38 songs hand-picked by Al himself, THE ESSENTIAL "WEIRD AL" YANKVIC is yet another well-executed title in the series. Encompassing 12 albums, the double-disc set starts from the beginning of Al's career, with "Another One Rides the Bus," his live "Another One Bites the Dust" parody from the Dr. Demento show in 1980, and it gradually chronicles up to the R. Kelly-influenced "Trapped in the Drive-Thru" from 2006's STRAIGHT OUTA LYNWOOD. Most of Al's big parodies are highlighted here ("Eat It," "I Lost on Jeopardy," "Yoda," "Like a Surgeon," "Fat") -- as well as some choice deep cuts, like the ripping accordion medley "Polkas on 45," the opening theme from UHF, and a smattering of absurd originals ("Albuquerque," "Dare to Be Stupid," "You Don't Love Me Anymore," and "The Biggest ...

EMI Comedy Classics songs
$57.09 When he burst into public recognition in 1968, people either regarded Tiny Tim as a lovable wacko, or simply a wacko; though Tim's eccentricity seemed both charming and oddly appropriate in the wake of the Summer of Love, despite his long hair and beatific attitude, he was no hippie, but instead an amateur archivist of American popular song who made it his life's crusade to remind people about the joys of the Tin Pan Alley era. In his own odd way, Tiny Tim was one of the first artists of the rock era to celebrate the notion of the Great American songbook, though his fondness for a warbling falsetto delivery, his thrift-store wardrobe, ...

EMI Comedy Classics songs
$15.35 H.P. Lovecraft's two self-titled albums are collected onto one disc that traces the band's development from a second-string psych band to a darker, proto-prog rock outfit. Despite some dated tracks on the first album and a slight lack of focus on the second, songs like "Wayfaring Stranger," "Time Machine," and "At the Mountains of Madness" showcase the unique harmonies and arrangments that made H.P. Lovecraft one of the most enduring cult psychedelic bands. ~ Heather Phares
Much more progressive than their first effort, the album also showed the band losing touch with some of their most obvious strengths, most notably their disciplined arrangements and incisive songwriting. The arrangements are more swirling and far denser on this follow-up. Unsurprisingly, the more concise, dual harmony numbers that bear the closest resemblance ...
| | People In Planes Beyond The Horizon CDs (2008) Bonus DVD
EMI Comedy Classics album
$7.59 People in Planes partnered with four producers during the recording of Beyond the Horizon, the band's follow-up album to As Far as the Eye Can See. Perhaps most notable are the resulting songs helmed by Our Lady Peace vocalist Raine Maida, as the bulk of Beyond the Horizon rests squarely within the same post-grunge niche that Maida helped carve. This is an album dominated by minor keys, by rock songs geared for rainy days, by melodies that evoke Muse without matching that band's proggy grandeur. People in Planes do sound bigger than their 2006 debut, particularly on the album's cathartic title track, and several of these songs feature polished hooks and fine, textured production. ~ Andrew Leahey
