The program itself looks at somewhat current events by examining actual news coverage and then coutering that with satire. Then the idea is supposed to be that the panel of 'funny' guests offers up their one-liners and sound bites so that everyone can have a good hee-haw regarding the topic. I missed the first 20 minutes or so, but caught the last 20 minutes. Allow me to start off by saying that Ralph Benmeurgi has done many things at the CBC, but I still think he should have stuck to radio. Yesterday's panel was "singer-songwriter" Jian, a journalist, and two comedians both named the same thing (ron?). Jian attempted to get into the action on most every subject, but I can't say that he was entirely successful. IE: When they were discussing the monarchy Jian mentioned that he wanted 'that woman off of our money' (hrm, where have we heard that before?) and suggested rotating different Canadians on the currency. "What about having someone like Sarah McLachlan on our bills?" Ralph replied "Yeah, that would last what, TWO weeks!?" and then promptly moved on the to the next panelist. Ooo... someone got shot down. The one thing I did notice though, is that Jian had difficulties holding his own on the exclusively Canadian topics. I would hate to say why, but would like to offer the following guess... Many of the topics discussed occurred while Fruvous was touring the US. Anyways... I didn't tape the show, but if anyone out there did, I'm sure it'll be in a followup to this post.

Here's a personal description of each CD available, and I'll let you choose. :-) Bargainville -- their first CD. Contains *many* of their best-known songs, including "King of Spain", "...Bunch of Authors", and "And The Band Played On". Generally a very fun album, with some slow movements to break things up. Wood -- Canada release only. Much slower mood, but contains some quirkier "slowers" like "Present Tense Tureen". Listen to the end for a hidden "Hey Organ Grinder", which is the *least* slow track by far. the 'B' Album -- Canada only. An EP, not an album, with only six or eight "fun" songs. Released as a contrast to "Wood" by popular demand. Best-known tracks are "I Love My Boss", "The Kids Song" and "Johnny Saucep'n". You Will Go To The Moon -- more eclectic than perhaps even Bargainville. Some fast songs, some slow songs, some a cappella songs, one Egyptian-style song. Two songs swear a lot, if that matters to you. (May not be suitable for sharing with parents. :) ) A good sampler of Moxy's current styles. Live Noise -- meant to be representative of their live concerts, and does a great job by most people's opinions. Kind of a "greatest hits" collection, too, with a couple of their popular covers and several snippets of random dialogue and improvisation. You might like to be familiar with the "original" versions of the songs, though, since some (like "Boo Time" and "King of Spain") get modified or improvised-in during live performances. That's the five CD's in chronological order, and the order in which I bought them. You may pick among them as you see fit. :-) - - Blaze ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 10 Sep 1998 18:25:53 -0500 From: "louis sypher" Subject: Re: We offer you MP3 music CD!
