Starting With the Little Toe…


This is a special piece for me, both to post
and to play on the show.
It’s a very funny song written by Shel Silverstein
and sung by Bob Gibson with Shel doing
commentary in the background.
Off of the Makin’ a Mess of Commercial Success
recording from 1995, it parodies the old “Taste Great,
Less Filling!” beer commercials that appeared on
television for quite a while.
Bob was was diagnosed with a rare degenerative
disease and was in the later stages of it when he
recorded that album, he was essentially dying
when he, Shel, and a gang of other well established
like minded artists got together to record it.
Mr. Gibson was considered to be a top notch
performer back in the 1950’s and 60’s, rivaling
that of Bob Dylan and other folk superstars of the time.
I play a lot of his material on the show, especially the
stuff he did by and with Shel Silverstein.
Great lyrics, even funnier if you can remember those
goofy beer commercials…

This is one of my favorite scenes from that
gloriously over the top 2004 zombie flick.
Some great lines here, the humor is wonderful.
Which records would YOU part with?
Gotta love it…

This is one of John Pinette’s best performances.
He was heavy, but he looked really healthy, you
can see it in his face.
His material and timing are excellent.
If he was just an average stand-up comedian I
wouldn’t post him as much as I do, but he was
one of the very best at his peak, he could compete
with anyone.
He’s a staple on the show, the big man deserves to
live on, his work makes a lot of people laugh.
As long as there are pieces like this to play he’ll
live on for quite a while…

AC/DC with a Bon Scott classic!
This piece has gotten a TON of airplay
on the show, and it will continue to do so…

Willy Wonka never looked worse!
