In and out... of favor

"I thought Red Peters's second album was a step down from `I Laughed, I Cried... I Fudged My Undies!' The songs weren't as consistently funny to me, although the CD overall had quite a few bright spots. The tunes are brimful of the sexual innuendo and double-entendre... the Red Peters trademark. I even found a new genre favorite with the disco theme `Pullin' It All Night Long'. In this work, Peters tries out different genres to cut down to size. There's the country tune `Long and Hard', the `I Wanna Polka Polka', and a new Christmas carol mixed in with the cocktail/lounge standards. He also tries his hand at audio bits- sketches and ad satires. These were hit-and-miss with me. I loved `Babes' Auto Villa', `Peenitch', and the suppository ad; unfortunately, the rest of them fell flat. And, being the politically incorrect guy he is, Red takes a few sacrilegious shots at our national pastime's seventh-inning-stretch tradition with `Take It Out At The Ball Game'. And his phone call to the Pope is certainly an unforgettable moment.One thing that really irks me-sometimes the curse words are bleeped out, and at other times you hear them (very) loud and clear. I wish it were one way or another. Other than that... if you enjoyed Joe Pesci's character Tommy DeVito from `GoodFellas', the final `bonus' track is something to savor...`Late"

What a follow up cd!

"The music is well done, the lyrics are memorable. A classic for everyone's collection. The music on the cd, ranges from Sinatra style to polka music. excellent!"
