1	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 £5.86! new only from £5.86!
2	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 £6.41! new only from £6.41!
3	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sacred from Lehrer's sharp wit, from racism to the Catholic Church, and, while much of his subject matter has become outdated, his shrewd comic talents are beyond ...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 £4.46! new only from £7.05!
4	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 £6.17! new only from £11.95!
5	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 £15.45! new only from £15.45!
6	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 £4.18! new only from £7.11!
7	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 £3.71!
8	Button-Down Mind of Bob Newhart (1960) more music like this by Bob Newhart add to wishlist Though not the first standup comedian to release a live recording, Bob Newhart was probably the first to really capture the public's attention, thanks to this debut. Of the six pieces included on this album, five of them are set up as part of a conversation (usually by phone), something that became Newhart's trademark. The material here would have ... see all copies from £3.40! new only from £7.97!
9	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 £8.72! new only from £8.72!
10	Go (2006) more music like this by Newsboys add to wishlist Go is a revolutionary achievement for a band that has spent the better part of two decades carving out a niche for dance-oriented contemporary Christian rock. The pioneers of pulse present a new set of high-production beats with glossy guitars and synth work. The collection was inspired by the band's concerts in Europe, Morocco, and Tiberius, ... see all copies from £10.89! new only from £10.89!
11	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 £4.33! new only from £8.00!
12	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 £2.48! new only from £7.12!
13	Great White North (1982) more music like this by Bob & Doug McKenzie add to wishlist Great White North is the hit comedy album from Bob & Doug McKenzie, better known as SCTV veterans Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas, respectively. There's one serious problem, though. It's not very funny as a whole. The shtick is that the McKenzie brothers are lazy, beer-swilling dimwits who focus on Canadian culture and rely heavily on slang ... see all copies from £5.35! new only from £6.60!
14	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 £4.33! new only from £4.90!
15	A Wild and Crazy Guy (1978) more music like this by Steve Martin add to wishlist "Repeat after me. I promise to be different! I promise to be unique! I promise not to repeat things other people tell me to repeat!" This is Steve Martin in action. He says something somewhat pseudo-intellectual followed by something silly, observation of the moment in tow. Throughout the Wild & Crazy Guy compilation, Steve Martin continuously ... see all copies from £3.09! new only from £5.89!
16	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 £4.03! new only from £7.99!
17	Shut Up, You Fucking Baby! (2002) more music like this by David Cross add to wishlist Comedy is hard, as many a hack has said, but comedy albums are even harder. Consider this: there was an explosion of comedians in the '80s and '90s, yet there hadn't been a classic comedy album since Bill Hicks. Both the standard-bearer of '90s standup, Jerry Seinfeld, and Los Angeles' vital alternative comedy scene of the '90s failed to produce ... see all copies from £3.89! new only from £10.38!
18	Retaliation (2005) more music like this by Dane Cook add to wishlist Dane Cook's Retaliation is a fantastic combination of this hyper, cutting comedian's talents and the Comedy Central record label's fantastic attitude toward packaging. Here, fans get "100 minutes of new material" on the audio portion (new to CD anyway, as some of these routines are already Cook classics for bootleg-trading fans) and just about ... see all copies from £3.50! new only from £12.45!
19	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 £3.09! new only from £6.08!
20	Bebe's Kids (1989) more music like this by Robin Harris add to wishlist see all copies from £5.60! new only from £5.60!
21	Class Clown (1972) more music like this by George Carlin add to wishlist Comedian George Carlin's definitive monologue was delivered on 1972's Class Clown album in the form of "Seven Dirty Words You Can Never Say on Television." While the majority of routines on Class Clown dealt with Carlin's self examination surrounding his Irish Catholic upbringing, he saved his controversial tour de force as the album's grand ... see all copies from £4.18! new only from £7.63!
22	Rough Around the Edges: Live from Madison Square Garden (2007) more music like this by Dane Cook add to wishlist It takes a very funny man to sell out Madison Square Garden, and standup superstar Dane Cook -- his Hollywood career notwithstanding -- is a funny man of the highest caliber. He's crass, observant, clever, and handsome, wooing women even as he commiserates with their boyfriends over explicit topics like condoms, sexual diseases, and modernized ... see all copies from £4.25! new only from £10.37!
23	Drunk in Public (2003) more music like this by Ron White add to wishlist see all copies from £4.70! new only from £9.24!
24	Werewolves and Lollipops [CD/DVD] (2007) more music like this by Patton Oswalt add to wishlist Turn on any deep cable channel that runs three-year-old movies -- or old Kings of Queens episodes or Comedy Central Celebrity Roasts -- and you'll run into the leading doughboy of cynicism, Patton Oswalt. The numerous guest spots and character actor parts the man lands are all delivered with the utmost care, but to really appreciate Patton you ... see all copies from £6.24! new only from £10.04!
25	Where There's Smoke There's Cheech & Chong (Anthology) (2002) more music like this by Cheech & Chong add to wishlist This double-CD anthology of Cheech & Chong's work properly leans on the albums they did for Ode in the early and mid-'70s, adding a few tracks from their late-'70s/early-'80s stint on Warner Bros. and the 1985 single (and small pop hit) "Born in East L.A." It being a Rhino compilation, you naturally get a few extras, too: the non-LP 1971 Christmas ... see all copies from £18.13! new only from £18.13!
