Shoes For Industry! The Best Of The Firesign Theatre

Take some remarkably prescient plotting (1974's Everything You Know Is Wrong works as a parody of today's paranormal craze) and add absurdist wordplay ("May I take your hat and goat?"). Factor in a fertile social and political milieu courtesy of always-good-for-a-yuck Richard Nixon (like our erstwhile president, they began campaigning in late '67 and by '74 were truly hysterical, albeit in a profoundly puzzling manner). Voil&aagrave; The Firesign Theater, the only comedy group that took full advantage of the recording studio and the long-play record (they aspired to be the Beatles of comedy, but it was the Beatles of "Revolution 9," not "Love Me Do"). Here is the fundamental overview of humorists who made mirth "with your mind in mind."
