1	Songs & More Songs by Tom Lehrer (1997) more music like this by Tom Lehrer add to wishlist Tom Lehrer recorded rather sporadically starting in the 1950s then abruptly retired in the mid-'60s from his unique solo musical comedy act. He's a competent pianist with a voice that is perfect for his original material. This compilation combines both of his records that were originally pressed and sold privately on the Lehrer label, which he ... see all copies from $7.33! new only from $7.33!
2	Bill Cosby Is a Very Funny Fellow Right! (1963) more music like this by Bill Cosby add to wishlist Those who only know Bill Cosby as an '80s television star and product pitchman don't know how truly funny and edgy he used to be when he first started out. Bill Cosby Is a Very Funny Fellow is his first album, and it's as good a place to start as any, with the "Noah" trilogy included. A story about the free entertainment on New York subways, a ... see all copies from $3.99! new only from $8.07!
3	Pete Seeger's Greatest Hits [2002] (2002) more music like this by Pete Seeger add to wishlist "Greatest Hits," as Seeger himself wryly wrote in his liner notes, is a misnomer considering that he never had hit singles or huge-selling albums as a solo artist, though actually "Little Boxes" (included here) made the lower reaches of the charts. In reality this 1967 compilation (since reissued on CD) collects the most popular tracks of his 1962 ... see all copies from $3.76! new only from $3.76!
4	That Was the Year That Was (1965) more music like this by Tom Lehrer add to wishlist Tom Lehrer's work always had a biting, satirical edge to it, but never was this more obvious than on this album, a collection of songs regarding events of the year 1965. Very little was sacred from Lehrer's sharp wit, from racism to the Catholic Church, and, while much of his subject matter has become outdated, his shrewd comic talents are beyond ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $9.65!
5	Halloween Hits [Rhino] (1991) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Rhino's Halloween Hits delivers everything anyone could want from a collection of spooky, campy rock & roll novelty songs about ghouls, ghosts, goblins, and monsters -- namely, "The Monster Mash." Just kidding, folks -- it has much more than that, including Jumpin' Gene Simmons' "Haunted House," the Five Blobs' "The Blob," Ray Parker, Jr.'s ... see all copies from $10.70! new only from $10.70!
6	My Son, the Greatest: The Best of Allan Sherman [CD] (1988) more music like this by Allan Sherman add to wishlist The bad news is that Allan Sherman hasn't received the credit and praise he deserves. The good news is that his gifts and genius are manifest in abundance on this best of package. The word-playing godfather of the modern parody, Sherman's songs are definitely rooted in his Jewish culture. However, his humanity is so strong and universal that ... see all copies from $6.45! new only from $6.45!
7	Jerry Clower's Greatest Hits (1994) more music like this by Jerry Clower add to wishlist see all copies from $1.99! new only from $7.67!
8	Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer (1984) more music like this by Elmo & Patsy add to wishlist For Elmo & Patsy fans -- or any admirer of tongue-in-cheek tunes with country flair -- the title track on this album alone is a good enough reason to purchase it for your Christmas collection. Elmo & Patsy are really characters portrayed by a man named Elmo Shropshire, a man who has lead a varied enough life to create many more characters, if he ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $6.81!
9	The Best of Shel Silverstein: His Words His Songs His Friends (2005) more music like this by Shel Silverstein add to wishlist Shel Silverstein is a hard guy to pin down, which is part of not only his charm, but his genius. He's best known as a children's author, but also was a Playboy cartoonist who couldn't resist a dirty joke. He penned novelty songs, but also could write songs as heart-wrenching as "Silvia's Mother" and "Once More With Feeling." He was also a terrific ... see all copies from $6.06! new only from $6.06!
10	I Started Out as a Child (1964) more music like this by Bill Cosby add to wishlist By sidestepping racial humor and the "sick" comedy of Lenny Bruce, Bill Cosby was able to reach a wide audience through keen and endearing portraits of his Philadelphia childhood. And even though he mostly bypassed civil rights issues in the '60s, Cosby, in many ways, was still able to de-stigmatize black culture by presenting his story without ... see all copies from $2.98!
11	Something Like This: The Bob Newhart Anthology (2001) more music like this by Bob Newhart add to wishlist It's a testament to Bob Newhart's considerable talents that his TV shows, particularly his '70s classic The Bob Newhart Show, overshadowed his comedy records which were trailblazers in their own accord. His first album, The Button Down Mind of Bob Newhart, became the first comedy album to ever reach the top of the charts, and it did so in 1960, ... see all copies from $16.29! new only from $16.29!
12	Halloween (2003) more music like this by Mannheim Steamroller add to wishlist Halloween is further proof that Chip Davis and his American Gramaphone outfit plan to provide and market proper musical accompaniment for all holidays, themes, and moods. Davis and his Mannheim Steamroller hit that categorical trifecta in 2003 by releasing three discs within months of each other: Romantic Melodies (mood), American Spirit (theme), ... see all copies from $3.97! new only from $8.22!
13	Apostrophe (') (1974) more music like this by Frank Zappa add to wishlist The musically similar follow-up to the commercial breakthrough of Over-Nite Sensation, Apostrophe became Frank Zappa's second gold and only Top Ten album with the help of the "doggy wee-wee" jokes of "Don't Eat the Yellow Snow," Zappa's first chart single (a longer, edited version that used portions of other songs on the LP). The first half of the ... see all copies from $11.31! new only from $14.21!
14	Christmas with the Chipmunks, Vol. 1 (1962) more music like this by The Chipmunks add to wishlist If you ignore, with the benefit of "grown-up" hindsight, the fact that the voices of Alvin, Simon, and Theodore were somewhat shrill, occasionally tuneless, and arguably annoying to obnoxious levels, the first volume of Christmas With the Chipmunks is a classic holiday record, and it certainly is that. The minor failings of those three cartoon ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
15	Bill Cosby "Himself" (1982) more music like this by Bill Cosby add to wishlist Bill Cosby "Himself," the soundtrack to the movie of the same name, features such classic Cosby routines as "The Dentist," "Natural Childbirth," and "Same Thing Happens Every Night." Without the visual distraction of Cosby's mugging -- which is either charming or clichéd, depending on your point of view -- his total mastery of his art comes into ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $6.93!
16	The Very Best of Stan Freberg (1998) more music like this by Stan Freberg add to wishlist 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 ... see all copies from $9.94! new only from $12.51!
17	Dr. Demento 20th Anniversary Collection: The Greatest Novelty Records of All Time (1991) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist 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' ... see all copies from $21.94! new only from $21.94!
18	King of the Mountains (2007) more music like this by Rodney Carrington add to wishlist When he landed a sitcom on ABC in 2004, Rodney Carrington quickly lifted himself out of the world of guest appearances on morning zoo radio and small-time comedy clubs. In other words, he went from Tim Wilson to Jeff Foxworthy and sanitized his act accordingly for prime-time TV. The two seasons of Rodney had a bit of an edge, but the truly trashy ... see all copies from $6.80! new only from $9.78!
19	Evening Wasted with Tom Lehrer (1959) more music like this by Tom Lehrer add to wishlist On Tom Lehrer's second studio album, he got a little more daring and biting, particularly on "Poisoning Pigeons in the Park," "The Masochism Tango," and "We Will All Go Together When We Go." Six years, after all, had elapsed since his 1953 debut, and social mores had loosened, if only a little. There's also one of his most well-known pieces, "It ... see all copies from $3.75! new only from $9.91!
20	Greatest Hits [RCA] (1999) more music like this by Spike Jones add to wishlist There have been many compilations of Spike Jones' music, but few have been better than RCA's 1999 collection, Greatest Hits. Over the course of 20 tracks, all of Jones' best-known songs are presented in their best-known versions, including "Leave the Dishes in the Sink, Ma," "My Old Flame," "Der Fuehrer's Face," "The Sheik of Araby, "William Tell ... see all copies from $6.85! new only from $6.85!
21	You Might Be a Redneck If... (1994) more music like this by Jeff Foxworthy add to wishlist You Might Be a Redneck If... encapsulates the humor of Jeff Foxworthy on a single disc. Essentially variations on the title phrase "You Might Be a Redneck If...," Foxworthy's jokes and simple but never crude. Like any comedy album, it appeals to a specific taste. If you find Foxworthy's repetitive jokes hilarious, you might be a fan. If you don't ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $6.45!
22	To Russell, My Brother, Whom I Slept With (1968) more music like this by Bill Cosby add to wishlist After issuing the music-oriented efforts Silver Throat: Bill Cosby Sings and Bill Cosby Sings Hooray for the Salvation Army Band! in 1967, comedian Bill Cosby returned to standup on the following year's To Russell, My Brother, Whom I Slept With. Unlike his earlier comedy recordings -- which found Cosby in the comparatively intimate confines of a ... see all copies from $4.22!
23	Dr. Demento Presents: Greatest Xmas Novelty CD (1989) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist If you like your Christmas tidings with a dollop of good humor, then this batch of holiday tunes is right up your alley. The lineup ranges from cute and innocuous (the Chipmunks, the Singing Dogs, and Spike Jones) to satirical (Stan Freberg and Allan Sherman) and just plain weird (Elmo and Patsy's "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer" and Tom ... see all copies from $7.58! new only from $7.58!
24	The Best of Bill Cosby (1969) more music like this by Bill Cosby add to wishlist Anyone who has the first six Cosby standup records will have all of this material already covered, but The Best of Bill Cosby is nonetheless a pretty good introduction. The choice of material reinforces the fact that in the early days Cosby was inventive and wasn't content to roll around in the clichés of husband versus wife, instead telling ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $8.54!
25	Don't Crush That Dwarf, Hand Me the Pliers (1970) more music like this by Firesign Theatre add to wishlist Firesign Theatre's previous work had already proved that the troupe wasn't particularly interested in releasing conventional comedy albums. While earlier albums had longer pieces, Don't Crush That Dwarf is the first time they dedicated an entire album to a single theme. Although initially it sounds like a loose collection of semi-related items, it ... see all copies from $4.50! new only from $4.91!
