Descripción
Product Description This is not your typical Philo release. John Forster is a loose cannon; not only is he funny, but he doesn’t care whose toes he steps on to get that way. The title track is straight out of Tom Lehrer–pure showbiz ham and ghastly punning wordplay; after hearing his caustic sendup, “Fusion,” Paul Simon will never sound the same to you again. He goes on to nail as much of the rest of the contemporary world as can be done in the space of one album. Computers, upscale nursery schools, codependency–nothing is safe. A deadpan, sly gang of New York studio musicians, including guitarist Elliott Randall, are on hand to help Forster make his point. Tienda John Forster records for the folk label Philo, but he’s actually a cabaret parodist in the tradition of Tom Lehrer, Allan Sherman, and the Capitol Steps. Like most performers in this genre, Forster is very good when he’s good but extremely annoying when he’s not. Entering Marion has more misses than hits, but when it connects, it scores big time. Unlike most of his peers in the parody dodge, Forster is actually more skilled as a musician than as a lyricist. In fact, it’s his pastiche of bombastic Teutonic music more than the words that makes his lampooning of modern German imperialism so witty. Unfortunately, too much of the album is given over to songs that try to wring double entendres out of Massachussetts road signs like “Entering Sharon” or “Entering Lawrence,” or try to imagine Mozart as a boogie-woogie piano player. –Geoffrey Himes
