Title: Disappointing, Classic is not Classic
Review: If you saw an album titled "Classic" with a name like George Carlin, Bill Cosby, Robin Williams, Monty Python, you would naturally think Classic = some of the very best bits.In this case classic means real old, not necessarily good. Recorded live somewhere at some time (there is no information on the sleeve), it seems to be very early Connolly, as he is making the transition from folk singer to stand-up comedy. A good amount of the material not only depends on being able to understand a Glaswegian patter, but also requires some geographical knowledge of Glasgow itself. A lot of scatalogical humour, and too many folk singing comedy songs.It is as if this recording company found an old tape of Connolly's that they had rights to, so they decided to cash in.There is a reason the price on this is so low.
Is the review positive or negative?
