Summary: What a pair of c****
Comment: Two old blokes swear a lot. You certainly need to brace yourself for this, it is truely disgusting but also funny and liberating. There is no check on political correctness but on the other hand they do not pick on anyone or group in particular, everybody gets it without prejudice. You will certainly cringe at some point but you may also find yourself laughing

Summary: "Hello" was the worst thing
Comment: Diamanda Galas' Schrei X is the funniest album Edna has ever heard, but Derek and Clive give Diamanda a close run for her money here. They tell it like it is, dears. Though track 4 is a major downer, (Live) (1976) has far, far fewer longeurs than "Come Again" (1977) or "Ad Nauseum" (1978). Go on - give it a spin.

Summary: A few moments of note, but not their best...
Comment: I love Derek and Clive. I think They are both great, but tehre is little on this cd that I have not heard before. Maybe I have been spoilt in the past, maybe I'm too picky, but I am used to laughing out loud at their bizarre sketches and converstations. No. Not as good as Ad Nauseam, certainly not as good as "come again" which is by far (in my opinion) their best work.

My advice, ok - if you have the others and want to complete teh collection, purchase this for a few quid. If you have heard about Derek and Clive and are wonderign which should be your first buy, go for 'come again'

Summary: The funniest album in the world... ever!!
Comment: This is the first (and best) of the Derek & Clive albums - and what an album it is!

Recorded in a studio Manhattan in 1973 during nights off from the American run of their 'Behind the Fridge' live show, & interspersed with live material recorded in front of a small audience of friends in a club in Greenwich Village, it actually remained unreleased for 3 years.

During this time 'bootlegs' of the sessions had mysteriously been surfacing, prompting this belated 'offical' release - which proved a deserved commercial success.

Kicking off in fine style with the hilarious (& now classic)tale of Clive's worst job ever (involving Jayne Mansfield & some,er, unwanted lobsters...), a swear-fest, songs, & even more obscure and hitherto unchartered topics of humor, it is guaranteed to have you in fits of laughter throughout.
Definitely not for the easily offended though!!

I can remember crying with laughter at the song that finishes the album (Jump) - and you still keep laughing, however many times you listen to it.

Basically it's a foul-mouthed version of the classic 60s Pete & Dud characters - & never have I heard people make swearing sound so funny!

I have to admit, when I first heard this album I was a child, and didn't even know who Peter Cook & Dudley Moore were!
This seems crazy now, as I know now that they are two of the unsurpassed comic geniuses of the 20th century - & this album is only one facet of their diverse collective creative canon.

But, if you've never heard this album before... what are you waiting for? Go buy it, play it to your friends & get ready for some very serious giggles!!

Summary: Foul mouth geniuses ranting on about me personally.
Comment: How these crude characters followed me around without me noticing, I'll never know. Their filthy opinions about my unique habits offended me nonetheless. And my poor mother, who is dead now. Like the boys themselves. RIP.
