"As a very small boy growing up in Australia in the early 1960's, my Father introduced me to the talents of Victor Borge when we used to listed to two of his albums, 'Comedy in Music' and this one 'Caught in the Act'. They contain all the magic and charm of this most talented pianist and comedian. This particular album has some of his finest work, whether it be his comedy or his brilliant piano playing. Together these albums make up the story from the beginning and will encourage to seek out other works of his. All my brothers (and I have 7)still laugh every time we hear him perform. Once hooked you can't resist. I have seen him live and have videos of his later performances where he performs a number of his best known routines most of which are first performed on these two albums. I can honestly say that you will not be disappointed with this CD. I have recently bought the record version of Comedy in Music and would part with blood to get this one on record. That's the nostalgia in me coming out, but it would be worth it for such a brilliant album."

"Comedy with a difference. What!? No swearing????

Todays comedian often resort to expletives to get their humour across. Victor is old school, very talented musically and is funny to all ages. For the young a very funny introduction to the classics."
