Reissue. Originally Released on Columbia in 1970. Their Best Stoner Classic Album. |
 | I Think We're All Bozos on This Bus [Read More ...]
Review: By Far, My Favorite:The Firesign Theater are the best thinking man's "head" comedy. Where Cheech and Chong are more in your face, FT is more subtle and this album is a whole story, not just a bunch of routines. They followed this single story style on several of their albums and ... |
 | Give Me Immortality or Give Me Death [Read More ...]
Description: The apocalyptic comedians of the Firesign Theatre return with Give Me Immortality or Give Me Death, their first studio recording in nearly 20 years. Like their original classics, this one tells a story that is greater than the sum of its satire, double entendres, and nonstop puns... |
 | Shoes for Industry! The Best of the Firesign Theatre [Read More ...]
Description: Take some remarkably prescient plotting (1974's Everything You Know Is Wrong works as a parody of today's paranormal craze) and add absurdist wordplay ("May I take your hat and goat?"). Factor in a fertile social and political milieu courtesy of always-good-for-a-yuck Richard Nix... |
 | The Bride of Firesign [Read More ...]
Description: During the freewheeling 1960s, the Firesign Theatre's brand of surreal, stream-of-consciousness humor was as much a part of the psychedelic landscape as acid rock. Blending puns, non sequiturs, and literary allusions, the heady and often absurd narratives were rife with multip... |
![]() | Waiting for the Electrician or Someone Like Him [Read More ...]
Review: There's No One Like Firesign:The album opener, "Temporarily Humboldt County", should be required listening in any high school history class. Not only is it wickedly hilarious but it skewers the mindless faux history that students are spoonfed by the public school machinery. One o... |

Review: They Would Think You Were Crazy!!!!:If you really want to know what ails you the only person to ask is Dr. Whiplash. You see you may have shortness of pants, high stool, seat cramps or even "Delayed Borgarigmys"....The only cure for which is Death!!!! Then again maybe all you nee... |
 | All Things Firesign [Read More ...]
Description: ALL THINGS FIRESIGN! When "All Things Considered," the public radio newsprogram that supplies over a million listeners a day with their ears to the world, asked The Firesign Theatre to contribute a regular humor "column" to the program, the veteran audio comedians instantly agr... |
 | Radio Now Live [Read More ...]
Review: Enjoyable, but not up to the level of their studio work:A very enjoyable performance, but somewhat slower-paced and more expository and linear than their studio stuff. In the studio, they can layer the jokes, fire off quick multi-level puns and move on to the next thing lightning... |
 | Anythynge You Want To: Shakespeare's Lost Comedie [Read More ...]
Review: Shakespeare Spoof Somewhat Short of Genius:As a slavish devotee of all things Firesign, I'd grade this as a fun but not completely successful project. For those intimately acquainted with Shakespeare's classics, this send-up (ostensibly a "lost" Shakespeare play) is a very sly d... |

 | Fighting Clowns [Read More ...]
Review: Why not the Fighting Clowns?:The Firesign Theatre started out looking to make a name for themselves before they had decided on a name, and The Fighting Clowns was big on the list of possible names for the group. If it hadn't been for the wrestling group, Clowns A'Fighting, which ... |
![]() | How Can You Be In Two Places At Once When You're Not Anywhere At All? [Read More ...]
Description: This CD contains some of the addled Los Angeles-based troupe's finest work. The Firesign Theatre's layered, group approach to comedy resembles improvisation but on further examination proves itself to be carefully crafted and speckled with more high-low cultural allusions than yo... |

Review: Mobile Fidelity not gold:There's not much to add about the content of this CD. If you like the Firesign Theater it's incredible beyond words. The only caveat - The Mobile fidelity version of this album was one of their experiments with standard silver disks and isn't gold. Still ... |
