Aesop's Fables

Dennis Weaver - actor
"Nobody can listen to his work without being thoroughly entertained, mentally stimulated and spiritually uplifted".

Product Description
Michael's version of Aesop's Fables uses many of his own Saturday Morning Cartoon voices as well as those from one of his friends, June Foray (the voice of "Rocky" and "Natasha" from Rocky and Bullwinkle)to generate excitement and uniqueness into these timeless fables. Each story is followed by a catchy, sing-a-long type song.

Album Description

While there is more known about the fables of Aesop than about the man himself, one thing is clear; Aesop set the stage over two millennia ago for all storytellers to follow. His fables have served for ages as examples of wisdom, morals, and lessons for humanity. Although his fables are almost always short and simple, he must be included among the greatest storytellers and teachers of all time. Diane has always included a number of Aesop's fables in her repertoire, as much for the fun of expanding, embellishing, and adding music & song to them as for the timeless lessons they impart. This CD is the result of a family show that Diane was asked to develop for a special friend's storytelling festival. Diane developed the music and songs for the show as well as new adaptations of some fables. While she is telling the story of Aesop in this recording, she is also telling & singing her adaptations of five of her favorite Aesop fables. Some of the fable titles are not the common titles usually found in the written versions, but reflect Diane's personal adaptations. Erik Pearson, who frequently accompanies Diane on her appearances, also joins her on this recording with his banjo, guitar, and bass.

Tom and Dick do "Aesop's Fables the Smothers Brothers Way".......2007-05-05

Aesop (Aesop, Aesop)
Told a great fable (fable, fable)
Told a great story (story, story)
Told a great tale
He had a way of telling brother
How we should all be treating each other
Aesop (yeah, yeah)
Told a great tale

He told people stories that had a moral
That Aesop he was no fool
Aesop knew that the world would be
A better place for you and me
If we all lived by the Golden Rule
And do unto others

"Aesop's Fables the Smothers Brothers Way" was the seventh album released by the Smothers Brothers and the second of two records that came out in 1965, following "Tour de Farce: American History and Other Unrelated Subjects." It is unique in their discography because it is a children's record. With words and music by John McCarthy, arranged and produced as always for the boys by David Carroll, the back of the album uses pictographs (a temple for "Greece," cartoon heads of the boys for "Smothers Brothers," etc.) to explain to the kiddies what the whole idea of Aesop's fables being retold by the Smothers Brothers "for their own day." The fact that "day" was in the mid-1960s, before the Summer of Love and all of the social turmoil at the end of that particular decade does not really date this album, whose thesis, after all, is that Aesop still has something to say thousands of years after his fables were first told.

Most adults will recognize most of the seven fables that make up the main part of this album: "The Greedy Dog," "The Boy Who Cried Wolf," "The Dog and the Thief," "The Farmer and His Sons," "The Fox and His Grapes," "The Bird and the Jar," and "The Two Frogs." Just as you would expect, Dickie tries to teach a valuable lesson (e.g., "Necessity is the mother of invention," "Together we stand, divided we fall"), while Tommy keeps getting off track and the brothers end up bickering before singing a song that drives home the lesson (e.g., "Nobody likes a liar"). Of course sometimes they bicker during the song and afterwards: Dickie likes to end the lesson by saying "That is a good thing to remember," and Tommy will add, "Yeah, even if you are not a wolf," which works for the story of "The Boy Who Cried Wolf," but "even if you are not a stick" does not make as much sense after "The Farmer And His Sons" and the track has to fade away while the boys go after each other. In between each fable on each "side" of the album Tommy does a brief song about wanting to be a fox, fly, or some other animal only to decide "Maybe I'd Better Stay Me" after hearing dogs barking, a flyswatter, etc. The album ends with a reprise of "Aesop Knew" that works in the morals from the seven tales.

If when you hear the name of the Smothers Brothers and think about the Yo-Yo Man then this album would probably be of more interest to you than if you automatically think of Brothers Smothers being fired from CBS in 1969. "Aesop's Fables the Smothers Brothers Way" is the second of what is now three comedy albums by the boys that Laugh.Com has released on CD ("Curb Your Tonque Knave" and ""It Must Have Been Something I Said"" are the others currently available). There are eight more to go and I have to admit that I wish this had been the eleventh one (yes, I would rather have "The Smothers Brothers Sing It Straight" before this one; for that matter I would like Dick's solo album "A Saturday Night at the World" being released on CD too as long as I am wishin' and hopin'), but then I am not exactly a kid any more so that would be an expected reaction to an album with a label announcing it is "Designed as Children's Entertainment." I just like their sophisticated satire and folk singing a whole lot better. Then again, if you play this CD for age appropriate children it could serve as a nice little introduction to the songs and comedy of what is now the longest running comedy team of all-time (and, yes, I already have tickets to see them again this summer).

Aesop (Aesop, Aesop)
Still is worth hearing (hearing, hearing)
He can still teach us (teach us, teach us)
A lesson or two
Like we said we still are able
To learn a lot from Aesop's fable
Listen (yeah, yeah)
We'll tell them to you
Aesop's fables our way
