Description
It's Lenny & Squiggy! Yes fans, Straight from the Laverne & Shirley show the two wacky friends recorded this concert LP back in 1979 & has been long out of print for years. Now those of you who have been searching can relive their comedy concert on CD! ***About Lenny And The Squigtones***Michael McKean first got wide recognition as Lenny on the 50's-based sitcom Laverne & Shirley. After a couple of singing performances on the show with his partner Squiggy (played by David Lander), they got the chance to cut their own album. Recorded live at the Roxy in Hollywood, they churn out a bunch of pretty funny parodies of 50's rock ballads ("Night After Night," "Squiggy's Wedding Day"). In between, there's plenty of schtick and patter, and most of that is funny as well ("So's Your Old Testament," "Babyland" - an incredibly corny poem in honor of Squiggy's mother Eva). The satire's not nearly as sharp as Spinal Tap, the retro backing is conventional, and the 70's produced way more 50's nostalgia than anyone needs, but by the same token, this is about a million billion times better than anything by Sha-Na-Na. Tap connection: Christopher Guest is credited on guitar as Nigel Tufnel, marking the first appearance of the character; he may have been involved in the writing too, but the copy doesn't list composer credits. Tracks include... Vamp On, Night After Night, Creature Without A Head, King Of The Cars, Squiggy's Wedding Day, Love Is A Terrible Thing, Babyland (For Eva Squigmann), If Only I Had Listened To Mama, So's Your old Testament, Sister-in-law, Honor Farm, Star Crossed, Only Women Cry, Foreign Legion Of Love, Vamp Off. Included Bonus Tracks... Six Lenny & the Squigtone performances from the Laverne & Shirley show!! (Star Crossed, The Jolliest Fat Man, You Gotta Strike When The Union Is Hot, Night After Night, Just A Couple Of Lover Boys, I Love Laverne). Also one live performance of 'Creature Without A Head' from America 2-Night! Also selected tunes from the Laverne & Shirley Sing LP!! Shipping within the United States is $5.00. Outside the U.S. is $7.00.
