Title: The guys who influenced Weird Al
Product review: For those of us who like the deranged music of Weird Al, these guys will probably trip your trigger too! I grew up listening to my parents' old Homer and jethro albums, and got the biggest kick out of them. Listening to them now on CD, instead of scratchy old vinyl, is a Godsend. For the longest time I'd been hoping for some Homer and Jethro CD releases, and finding their albums is getting harder.Some of their material might be considered a bit dated, and younger listeners might not get some of their jokes, but for the most part, they're still hilarious. This compilation is not typical of their standard songs, which were more country, but one listen to 'She loves You', and 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand' showed they could cross-over to rock just as well. H&J; could take hit records, and totally murder them, in the same vein as Weird Al, only they did it first. Never are they silly, but always funny.
