简介

It is ironic that the biggest detriment to Mason Williams as a singer-songwriter is Mason Williams himself. I picked up this CD so that I could listen to "Classical Gas" whenever the mood struck me. The only other song I tend to listen to is "Baroque-A-Nova," probably because I remember having both songs on 45s in the olden days. There are a couple of other songs I like on the album, not when they are sung by Mason Williams, but rather when they are sung by the Smothers Brothers, for whom Williams was a major contributor. The Brothers Smothers recorded both "Long Time Blues" and the "Life Song," while Dick Smothers did a wonderful solo of "Wanderlove" on "The Smothers Brothers Play It Straight." There is also one song, "The Prince's Panties," which serves as a reminder that Williams wrote a lot of comic songs, which may well have been his true forte.
