THE BEST!.......2007-02-15

I normally don't write reviews for anything, but I was disappointed when reading other peoples negative reviews on this cd. This is by far the funniest and most creative of the Jerky Boys cds. . .people were listing the unfunny ones as the 'redeeming' factor. . .I don't get it. 'Kissel sails' will make me laugh until the day I die.

This cd is hilarious. . .don't be fooled by people whom don't have a decent sense of humor.

Hi sir! Hi! HELLO?!.......2006-08-31

The fourth Jerky Boys album, released in 1997, is definitely a big drop-off from the first three. I think they peaked in 1995-1996, between the movie and the long, diverse, and hilarious third album.

While this installment of the crank-call masters has 24 tracks, there's a lot of throwaway material on this one. As usual, Johnny Brennan supplies most of the laughs, he basically being The Jerky Boys (Rizzo, Tors, Rosenberg). The best tracks once again belong to Rizzo. They're all excellent on this one, except Mining For Scotty which is stupid and overlong (but you can still mine out those classic Rizzo quotes). Testing For Jeopardy might be the longest Rizzo prank ever, and it's got the usual quick-wit, bizarre vulgarity, and general attitude we've come to expect and love from Rizzo. Otherwise, Rosenberg gets a few chuckles with his usual neurotic insanity, and Tors has a couple of decent laughs.

Otherwise, a lot of tracks sound like leftovers, or lame attempts. A good number are very short, almost outtakes (someone hangs up, or they sound like some kind of personal in-joke). Herman, Bacon, Helly Ray, Trains, Mariposa, Laundromat---they add nothing to the collection and just water down the good material.

Oddly enough, we get a music track(!) in Jerk Baby Jerk, which is basically a Miami-bass-style track with inane lyrics and some funny Jerky quotes sampled.

Overall, a must for the Jerky addict, but with the exception of Rizzo, this does not compare with the first three. Still, for a self-described 'low-life from Queens', Johnny Brennan is a comic genius.

Come on, baby, it's the Jerky Boys!.......2006-07-02

This was the fourth album by crank callers the Jerky Boys, as if you couldn't guess that from the title. Each Jerky Boys album is slightly less funny than the previous one, but this one still made me laugh out loud several times. Sure, it's stupid and ridiculous, but I still find it amusing. The last track here is a dance song that incorporates bits from some of the Boys' calls.

The Party's Over.......2005-05-04

The first three Jerky Boys albums represented the finest in crank-call comedy. (That may seem like faint praise, but it's true.) This fourth album, though, borders on embarrassment. It's an obviously-rushed product of low-to-middling quality, which shows a fair amount of desperation on the part of the Jerkys.

Note the second call, 'Need To Dance.' There's not a single laugh on it, and it's basically just the Jerkys' 'gay' character yelling back and forth with an annoyed guy from a production company. The 'prank' totally doesn't work, but it goes on minute after minute. Many of the calls feel the same way, and half the time, the person on the other end obviously knows they're being pranked, and just laugh to themselves. It seems like the joke is on the Jerkys at that point, as they desperately keep their shtick going despite the fact that their 'victim' is on to them.

There are a few laughs here, but it's obvious that the Jerkys were done for at this point. Stick with the first three albums.

OUCH!.......2002-04-12

I am a major fan of the Jerky Boys. That said, listening to this CD was painful, especially when one is aware just how clever and funny the duo can be.

The thought that kept running through my head was "Are these the bits that wound up on the editing floor of the first three CDs?"
Many of the calls are really mean spirited and humorless(especially the Jeapordy bit). Other calls just seem to ramble and go nowhere. This is not vintage Jerky Boys.

The one redeeming bit on this album is Sol Rosenberg's phone call in an attempt to banish Howard Stern from the airwaves... only problem is he calls the Food and Drug Administration, thinking they could assist him with such his troubles.

I thoroughly enjoyed the first three Jerky Boys releases. Jerky Boys 4? Forget about it!

Hilarious Album: Not as good as JB 3.......1999-03-08

The Jerky Boys have hit their peak with the last album. This album seems to display a groping for creative material. The song at the end of the CD is rediculous beyond belief. There are some hilarious tracks, such as the track with "Sammy Cox." But I feel this is their last piece. Anymore CDs will probably feature outdated or unoriginal tracks. I recomend Jerky Boys 1-3.
