Notes
The 1950s saw the emergence of a new and more adventurous strand of political and social satire evidenced in books and newspapers, on stage and on radio, and especially on the burgeoning new medium of TV, but it also found it's expression in music, and one of the most individual and celebrated musical satirists of the time was Tom Lehrer. A mathematician and academic by profession, he recorded a 10" LP of his first collection of songs in 1953 "Songs Of Tom Lehrer", which gradually brought him to public attention, following it several years later in 1959 with a 'Live' LP of new material "An Evening Wasted With Tom Lehrer" which was also recorded in a studio environment that year as "More of Tom Lehrer". In 1960 a further 'live' album including material from his first album was released as "Tom Lehrer Revisited", the US version comprising a side recorded at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a side recorded in Australia. The Decca UK release comprised the same songs drawn entirely from the MIT concert. This 2-CD collection comprises the complete content of all four LPs, using the Decca UK version of the last of those. It's a comprehensive and thoroughly entertaining anthology of his best-known repertoire with studio and 'live' versions of his hilariously irreverent and off-the-wall compositions.

A little strange in the transitions between tracks, audio dipping out and back in, probably a result of having copied from other digital albums. A slight bit of degradation in audio fidelity, also probably from copying a copy, but I only hear that because I grew up listening to the original albums. Most listeners wouldn't notice it, and it scarcely detracts from the experience.

  • A good song collection in one cd, but quality is not good

    It is nice to have any Tom Lehrer recordings since he was very entertaining, an excellent performer. He was way ahead of his times with his visions and music. This compilation of four records is great since I didn't have to order/purchase four separate cd's, and I can listen to this one cd in my car during long road trips without having to change cd's out and in. However, the recording quality on some of the recordings is not good, to the point where when he talks and makes commentary prior to performing the songs I have a hard time trying to understand what was being said. That is important because much of what makes Tom Lehrer entertaining was his before song commentary. I was disappointed with the quality of the recordings or the quality of the transfer of the recordings.
