Tim Wilson "Super Bad Sounds of the '70s"

I got this CD from Richard Swaine and John Sproul of CD Warehouse in Georgetown fame when they got about 800 CDs that had been in a flooded basement. They couldn't sell them in the store so I got them. I'd never heard of Tim Wilson but this is one of the funniest things I've heard in a long time! I once tried to listen to it in the car and almost had to pull over because I was laughing so hard I could drive. Highly recommended!

Les Rita Mitsouko ~ C'est Comme Ça

I've had this LP for, at least, ten years and I just got around to listening to it recently. I bought it with a bunch of other stuff and it got shuffled out of sight. I've since discovered that this is one helluva lot of fun to listen to. And the video captures the mood of the entire album. I highly recommend it.
