I've always been a fan of Hegley ever since I bought his book 5 Sugars Please, and when I saw that this CD was on Amazon, I had to get it, as I couldn't find it in the shops. Basically this is a FUN mixture of spoken poetry and songs - probably the nearest it gets to being serious is Death Of A Dog and Seaing The Sea, but it is never sombre.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Comedy Classic, 20 Mar 2000

By	paul.moore7@virgin.net (Derbyshire) - See all my reviews

Put simply, this CD is a comedy classic. A personal favourite poem of mine being Miserable Malcolm From Morecombe. Every poem / track has its own distinct personality. A great audio buy for fans of Hegleys books.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hegley is a god, 4 Nov 1999

By A Customer

John Hegley is one of the few people who can both make me laugh and cry. I bought this album when I was very ill and it helped me feel better about myself. The songs are really funny and the poems are poinient. A must for all Hegley fans and all those with a terrific sense of humour.

5.0 out of 5 stars Funny, funny, funny.
I saw John Hegley at the Edinburgh Festival in 1992 and this CD seems to be all the poems and songs I have been trying to tell all my mates about for years. Read more
