"Welcome brothers and sisters to the First Church of Polyester....... If y'all haven't heard the Rev (or better yet SEEN the Rev).... WHAT ARE Y'all waiting for? This was my first "Rev" cd; it wasn't and isn't my last. This is a wonderful mix of the fantastic musical talent as well as the pure comedy style that is sure to bring on tears and that hacking cough you get when you laugh so hard you can't get your breath! "Waffle House Fire", "Just Friends" and "Surf Party" are pure comedy classic; as well as politically incorrect, they have a pure insanity that transcends the Manson Nixon line; this is not just Southern Humor ala Foxorthy. Be forwarned; this is like eating home fries scattered, smothered, covered, chunked, topped diced and peppered; highly addictive! You won't be able to stop with just one CD: just a shame the 8-tracks are all sold out! Money WELL spent!"

"I have a confession to make brothers and sister, I, am a comedy snob. Yes friend I refuse to partake of substandard comedy and shun the auditory companionship of funny stuff that just ain't funny.Well gang we are blessed at this moment with the company of none other than the Reverend Billy C. Wirtz. Not only is the good Rev. one of the funniest men to crack a joke or tell a story while preformin' music, He is also one of the most musically gifted fellas to ever shoot out a tune whist crackin' a joke or tellin' a story. (the rest of you folks run along and listen to a coupla samples while the college boys & girls do the math on that last sentence then they can go listen when you get back). Just to add to the fun the CD is set up to continue the story through each cut as The Rev., Purvis and the rest of the gang at the First Church of Polyester Worship etc,.etc. wander their way through your cd player.Go have a listen. I suspect you to will be saved."
