“Today’s Top Hits” by the HOMESTEAD (?) on Homestead Records (of course) 1979  Featuring bad recreations of chart toppers of the day, like Randy Newman’s “Short People,” one of the greatest politically incorrect songs of all time.

The Rutles “A Hard Day’s Rut”  Parlourphone Records  A Rutles bootleg (if a parody band can have such a thing)  Originally created by Eric Idle and Neil Innes as a fictional band to be featured as part of various 1970s television programming, the group evolved into a real band that recorded and toured, debuted in the States on a couple of Saturday Night Live programs in 1975 and 1976 and was the subject of a mockumentary film “All You Need is Cash”.  The band included “Nasty” (Innes); “Stig” (Rikki Fataar); “Dirk” (Idle); and “Barry” (John Halsey).

Emil Nargi IS Elvis  “It’s Now or Never”  There are so many records by Elvis impersonators you can’t imagine.  Each one stranger than the last.  Emil looks like he could be one of the little dolls or porceline statuettes that my Grandma Loretta kept in a glass case.
