by Various Artists

If you like your Christmas tidings with a dollop of good humor, then this batch of holiday tunes is right up your alley.

Presents the United States of America, Vols. 1-2 (1996) more music like this

by Stan Freberg

Big Hits of the 50's

Big Hits of the 50's (1998) more music like this

by Various Artists

Big Hits of the '50s is a worthwhile introduction to the lush pop sound of the era; the song selection is fairly pedestrian, but then it's hard to go wrong with enduring favorites like Nat King Cole's "Mona Lisa," and Sonny James' "Young Love," Tennessee Ernie Ford's "Sixteen Tons" and Les Paul & Mary Ford's "Vaya Con Dios," and with 20 tracks and ...

The Very Best of Stan Freberg

The Very Best of Stan Freberg (1998) more music like this

by Stan Freberg

Combining Tom Lehrer with Spike Jones (would that make Tom Jones?) and Nichols and May with Joe Friday (a May weekend perhaps?), musical comedian Stan Freberg skewers everyone from Walt Disney to Cole Porter. Mumbling through "Sh-Boom," Freberg drags "The Great Pretender" snarling to "The Heartbreak Hotel," snares "The Yellow Rose of Texas," and ...

The Best of Stan Freberg (1963) more music like this

by Stan Freberg

By the '50s, Stan Freberg had firmly established himself in radio. That's when he turned to the record companies to release his twisted takes on popular music and television shows. Many of the musical tracks are set up as a battle between the singer and at least one antagonist ("Yellow Rose of Texas," "Banana Boat," "C'est Si Bon," "Rock Island ...

Child's Garden of Freberg more music like this

by Stan Freberg

Stan Freberg was a real phenomenon in the early to mid-'50s, cranking out single after single of inspired parodies of whatever style of music happened to be popular at the time. After a few years it finally dawned on someone that maybe some of those singles should be collected onto an album for those who hadn't managed to pick the songs up on 45. ...

With the Original Cast more music like this

by Stan Freberg

Few American satirists have been as prolific or multimedia savvy as Stan Freberg. Before getting his own CBS Radio program, he was among the best-sellers on the Capitol Records roster.

The Stan Freberg Show (1995) more music like this

by Stan Freberg

Social satirist and comedian Stan Freberg created one of the most entertaining radio programs during the waning days of the medium. However, what separated Freberg from 'golden age' classics such as Amos 'n' Andy or The Jack Benny Show was his relentless pursuit of innovation and his boundless ingenuity. These likewise became factors in his ...
