Who'd-a thunk it?.......2007-06-19

Between release of this album and now, Cheech Marin became a bona fide actor and co-starred with Don Johnson on "Nash Bridges". I can just hear Pedro de Pacas' sidekick Man; "Pedro becomes a pig? Bummer, man!" This album was my follow-up purchase to their first album after hearing the duo's Holiday hit "Santa Claus and His Old Lady" the previous year. I bought their earlier album looking for that track, and to this date, no C&C album has featured it. You have to get Dr. Demento's "Greatest Christmas Novelty CD Of All Time", but that's another story. This album grabs you from the first track "Sister Mary Elephant", and I was reminded of it this past Sunday in church, where four baptisms were held. The predictable noise level caused by siblings present forced the Father to practically bellow his sermon, despite the p.a. system, and I commented to my choir director that the padre could have used the help of The Screaming Nun; "Good morning, class...Class....SHUUUUTUUUUUUP!!!" You will also get a foretaste of Marin's versatility in the next album "Los Cochinos", when Marin uses a great Quebecois accent to interview Chong in the part of a crab louse "Buster da body crab" in one sketch on that release. A lot of the humor in C&C's work is sophomoric to say the least, aimed at the Animal House demographic whose sons watch Comedy Central's Carlos Mencia today, but the content of these men's humor obscures the fact that they are brilliant.

No Sophomore Slump On This One!.......2003-12-30

By the time Richard and Tommy were ready to record again, they had become BIG STARS, which was somewhat unexpected. Their first album was a hit, but these guys were now in the same league as the biggest rock bands of the time, something unheard of in the comedy field. To support their first album, when they came to Denver, they played a great little club called Ebbets Field in downtown. When BIG BAMBU arrived, they were playing arenas. They were the hottest ticket going.
And they deserved it: BIG BAMBU was a great follow-up, from the huge rolling paper which came with the original LP to tracks such as "Sister Mary Elephant" (a hit single), "The Continuing Adventures of Pedro de Pacas and Man", our two favorite canines, "Ralph and Herbie", a right on the target skewering of every television cliche imaginable including the famous "Let's Make a Dope Deal", and so much more. These were all bits that you memorized and shared with your friends, falling into hysterics every time. Their first three albums are their very best, and all worth adding to your library. Of course they're silly, timely, sophomoric, socially astute, scatological, and sometimes profound. That's what makes the best comedy. Thank you, Tommy and Richard. You're the best.

Must Have for Party Animals.......2003-09-24

I bought this record upon its original release (circa 71-72) at the tender age of 12, it was my parents reward for having cursed me with my first pair of glasses.

Mom hated it....dad *loved* it...and he was a 20 yr Army Vet (translated-POT IS DEADLY mentality).

I challenge even William Bennett not to laugh at this.

If I had not memorized this CD when it was an album I might not be sure I was here for the seventies and eighties! The humor is timeless and the timing is brilliant! Worth listening to even sober!
