I honestly don't mean to sound churlish or offensive but I'm not sure I can listen to this much more.
This is just an awful Jimmy Cliff/Melodians-have-a-go in the garage effort now.

The Wheels on the Bus.
An indulgence that the album didn't need.
No hang on, it's gone good!

I can see Emily at that gig in New York, all set to flip her wig and let her post-baby b**bers hang out to some RAWK, only to gawp at this kind of mugging bullcrap in disbelief.
Yeah, cause, Richman's still doing this stuff, 40 years later.

It is over.
Despite its archness, I found it enjoyable, thanks to its lightness and the limited demands it put upon me.
Now to look back at the thread and see what everyone else made of it.

I'm sure De La Soul used that clickety click sound on their 2nd LP.

I liked that one, Dunno If I'd want to listen to that much again. But it's getting ★★★★.
Just checking out the first album, it's not the Punk Rock classic I've heard it described it as.
