WHERE TO GET SOME OF THE RECORDINGS PLAYED ON WEEKEND RADIO



   
 


COLLECTORS' CHOICE MUSIC CATALOG 
The Flanders and Swann (EMI), Peter Sellers (EMI), Monty Python
(Virgin) and American Comedy Box (Rhino) multi-CD sets are generally
available in large record stores, and in such catalogs as Collectors'
Choice Music. I continually watch Collectors' Choice for re-issues of
historic (and histeric) albums.

 


THE BIOCHEMISTS' SONG BOOK 
This tape from England has such hits at "Beta Oxidation" and "Fatty
Acid Biosynthesis". I understand that biochemists find these screamingly
funny. We usually play this as part of our "Mole Day" celebrations. But,
we have lost contact with the distributor.

 

WHAT GOES UP MIGHT COME DOWN WITH DAVID GUNSON 
This very popular piece on air traffic controllers and
how to fly a 747 gets on the air about every two years.
It has been available at amazon.com.uk and other British sites.

 


JOHNNY STANDLY'S "IT'S IN THE BOOK" 
This big hit of the '50s was available on an EMI-Capitol CD called
(naturally) "Big Hits of the '50s". The number is 7 24381 94722. However,
I haven't been able to find it at amazon.com lately.

 


RED INGLE AND THE NATURAL SEVEN 
Red Ingle and the Natural Seven's corpus of such
songs as "Tim-tayshun" and "Cigareetes, Whusky
and Wild Wild Women" (28 tracks in all) has been
available at amazon.com.

 

 
THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY 
Following our broadcasts of "Hitchhikers' Guide to the Galaxy", we've
received many inquiries as to the availability of the programs. The CDs
are available from the BBC web site as are cassettes of Douglas Adams
reading his novels.

 


WAYNE AND SHUSTER 
From 1949 to 1963, Wayne and Shuster had a
weekly half hour comedy-variety show on the CBC.
This CD set culls the best including the "Shakesperean Baseball Game". Go to the CBC website, or
senarioproductions.com/ws/index.html. 

 


MARY LU WALKER 
Mary Lu Walker, has re-issued her classic
"Middle Age Middle Class Mama Songs" on CD.
Now we can enjoy in digital sound such enduring
ditties as "Lord of the Socks", "Ladies of a Certain
Age", and "What's to Eat".  She has a number of
other albums, great for children. Click here to reach her website.

 


HOFFNUNG FESTIVALS 
Gerard Hoffnung's "Bricklayer's Story" is available
on CD, along with other Hoffnung items. There is a
new BBC compilation (as of 2006) of extracts and
interviews celebrating the life and work of Gerard
Hoffnung  narrated by Humphrey Lyttelton.


Ann Mortifee - This Canadian singer has been a
favorite on WCLV for decades. She has about a
half-dozen CDs, but the one we play the most is
a re-issue of her 1975 album, Baptism. Another
good album is Healing Journey, which includes
others of her early recordings. Click on her name
to reach her website.
