Unredeemed junk

"I'm as big a Simpsons fan as anyone, but this is hideous.
There are four Simpons-derived albums on the market.
Two are comprised of excerpts from the TV show. Those are
both terrific 4-5 star albums. There is another album of
all original (not from the TV show) material, The Simpsons Sing
The Blues. That album was weak and a major disappointment, but
it did feature a few (and only a few) amusing moments.This? The best moments on this CD are the bands of silence
that separate the tracks. How anyone thought this was worth
recording is beyond me. Why anyone spent money to release
and promote it is WAY beyond me. It isn't funny and the music
[stinks]. Even if you are a completist, you don't need this. Trust me:
I am a completist. I bought it and wish I hadn't. There is
NOTHING on this album that merits your time or money.dap"

A Nice Frisbee but Terrible Music Wise

"Like the Simpson's Sing the Blues this album has one good song and the rest very terrible fillers. Hail to Thee Kamp Krusty is pretty good as it has a fair number of characters singing in it. Twenty Four Hours a Day sung by Apu is about working in the Quikie Mart and is all right but a bit too long. The rest however are just plain terrible when you consider there has been some pretty good songs on the actual show sung by the characters. I love the TV show. The creators and writers on the Simpson's write hilarious stuff every episode. This is obviously just a release to make money album as they have put no effort into it whatsoever. Very disapointing. Don't waste your money."

Disappointing at best...

"As with many of these reviewers, I am a Simpsons fan... Some even call me obsessed, what with my collection of episodes on tape and all... Unfortunately, when I picked up the ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE CD, I was excited... Little did I know what PAIN I was in for... there are maybe two good songs on the CD... PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS EVEN IF YOU ARE A HUGE FAN OF THE SHOW!!!"
