CD Reviews

Clinton may be gone, but the humor remains

Daniel Jolley | Shelby, North Carolina USA | 07/06/2002

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Political parodist extraordinaire Paul Shanklin showed no signs of a sophomore slump with this, his second album, released during election year 1996; in fact, from top to bottom, this may well be his most consistently entertaining album. His impressions of Bill Clinton and Al Gore have been improved significantly, the skits he performs are quite funny, and the musical parodies he sings are all fun and sung to rather catchy, familiar songs. Most of the selections feature Bill Clinton and/or Al Gore, but Shanklin does manage to sneak in a few jabs elsewhere. Louis Farrakhan promises to show you how one plus one can be nineteen and how half a million people can be made to equal two million in his new book Million Man Math Made Easy. Ross Perot puts in a couple of appearance, Pat Buchanan is presented in a skit relating to NAFTA-type concerns, and we are introduced to The Simpletons family.As always, the music makes the album. Prominent among the songs are "Werewolves in Congress" and "Poll Man" (Soul Man), both of which feature great background singing by Al Gore. I especially love to hear Gore's "dum dum dum dum dee doo wah on "Only Baloney" (Only the Lonely). "Me and Hillary" (Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard) features such classic lines as "I'm hopin' that dope, Webb Hubble, only sings in the shower." In "Conservative Boy" (Material Girl), Clinton passes himself off as a conservative but admits that not even he believes he only exhaled. "My Girls" (My Girl) needs no explanation. One of my favorite tracks is "They'll Get You Babe" (I Got You Babe), in which Bill and Hillary exchange charges of wrongdoing. All in all, there are 12 songs, of which only one, Ross Perot's song "A White Tight Coat," is sub-par. Clinton may not be President anymore, but that does not mean we all can't listen to and laugh along with Shanklin's brilliantly funny parodies."

Sensational!

"Great hits such as "Poll Man," "Only Baloney" and my favorite "They'll Get You Babe" make this CD stand out!"

Great "Lyrics". Great Music. Great Choices. Great CD.

"Great CD. Good voices. Good words. Good choices of music. Very well done. Don't get Executive Priviledges, get this one. Wonderful humor."
