Review I have to confess I approached this album with some trepidation. I have treasured the Bonzos for years. But could they ever approach the heights of silliness without Viv? I saw them in concert last year and found that, yes they could, albeit with the spectre of Viv behind them. But a new recording? Could that work? Most definitely yes! This made me laugh out loud all the way through. It will embarrass me when I listen to it on my iPod and chortle amongst the repressed silence that is the commuter train. It will make me look foolish when laughing at the lights in the car. Thanks to Neil and the team. You have honoured the memory of Viv and given the world a fine extension to the Bonzos catalogue. --Amazon

I have often wondered when did it become out of fashion to smile because of music, (let alone - laugh)- and now I know the answer - it went out of fashion when the Bonzos called it quits the first time around, in '71. The Bonzo Doo-Dah Dog band are back to say that the rules; have changed - they're not competing with anything else out there - they're in their own universe. This big album (28 tracks - near 72 minutes) says less of This is what the public wants, so let's make our mint but instead says more of screw you - we're having a good time wether you like it or not (an attitude that is arguably missing from the vast majority of modern music heard on the airwaves.) Who knew that the real heart and soul of rock and roll would still be very much alive and kicking in this group of mostly gray-hairs who, for one thing, still have a great penchant for playing a healthy helping of prohibition-era jazz (think early black and white Mickey Mouse - you are FORCED to tap feet cause it's so happy) as well as the usual Bonzo sprinkling of narrations, a few beautiful ballads (some with beautifully unexpected twists), nods to Gary Numan, Bob Dylan, bluegrass music, country, the military, bad puns, surf-rock, commercials and of course, modern rock. All the players have plenty of room to take turns, and it's nice to hear them all with their unique inclusions; the usuals (Neil, Larry, Roger) the unusual (Rodney takes a rare turn), the newbies (Phil, Adrian and Stephen) and the oldies (Sam, Vernon, Bob). It's that attitude of everybody joining in and having a damn good time that I hope spreads like a massive virus. --Amazon

Loved this! True in spirit and execution to the memory of our beloved Bonzo's. Only thing missing of course is the great one, Vivian, now crooning lovingly to his old Victrola up in the big blue. Complete with adverts,clarinet, tuba, banjo, songs of heartbreak, singing saw, spoon solo, nimble piano and a pinch of french for good measure. Put on your headphones and listen to this all the way through. It flows together seamlessly with no air between songs. doesn't it. With pause instructions at disc's mid-way point to simulate the turning over of your old black plastic as in those farflung days. Blithering musicanship. Stark vocals. Lunacy. Great songs. Exquisite readings/narration/great fun. Gently sentimental/roaringly half-cocked. Memory lane revisited with modern day plot points referenced. Good to the last 'arf' colorful accompanying sleeve filled with a bounty of ephemera...um, I mean, information, excellent photo's, song background...a really special package inside and out. --Amazon Album Description The first new studio album for 35 years! Featuring original members: Neil Innes, Roger Ruskin Spear, Rodney Slater, Legs Larry Smith, Vernon Dudley Bowhay-Nowell, Sam Spoons and Bob Kerr. With Shiny New Bonzos: Adrian Edmondson, Stephen Fry, and Phil Jupitus
