Music to make you laugh by


No, I don't mean the text of a song as an example. Rather the musical content of a given piece of music, which by listening to it, be it in concert or at home in front of your rig, has made you laugh out loud or grin or smile, because it was funny or amusing in a clever way.

Get the gold CD of "Bob and Ray Throw a Stereo Spectacular". It's fun and an excellent system tester. I don't expect most of you 'philes to be old enough to remember Bob and Ray so just trust me. If I recall correctly the CD is on DCC, which is one of the reasons why it sounds so good.
I have a Mercury CD of Leroy Anderson's music. Song titles like the Waltzing Cat, Typewriter Song, Syncopated Clock etc. What is fun is telling a child (no older than 8 or 9) the name of the song and playing it and watching their reaction when they "get it". I've done it a few times and most kids really get a kick out of it. In turn so do I.
Bob and Ray, yeah; gotta do a search. I wonder if they recorded baseball a la Shakespeare: "never have I seen so fair a foul". Good on ya, Elgordo.
Sorry, Detlof, that was actually off topic and I meant to include Dizzy Live at Newport II. Everyone's having a ball and it shows.
My favorite is Spide Jones "Let's Sing a Song of Christmas". I have the original LP my parents bought in 1956. It is now out on CD. I get a big smile on my face ever time I play it. I bought a copy of the new CD for the rest of the family for Christmas last year. Brings back those good old memories as a kid. The one song some of you may have heard that is on the record is Spike's version of "All I Want For Christmas is My Two Front Teeth".
