For reasons that seemed good to me, I looked up the Smothers Brothers on Wikipedia. There, I learned that their album "The Two Sides of the Smothers Brothers" devoted one side to songs rather than comedy because they had used almost all of their comedy routines on their first album, and could only come up with one side's worth of new routines. At the Amazon link for the album, many of the reviewers considered the singing half to be mediocre.

I will grant that the comedy side is very strong; if nothing else, it includes the classic "Chocolate" routine, But, though I haven't heard the album literally in decades, I remember enjoying the music a great deal. I am currently being earwormed by a medley of those songs: "Stella's Got a New Dress", "The Four Winds and the Seven Seas", and "Map of the World".

Amazon says they only have 11 copies in stock. I'm thinking of making a music run soon, and I may grab that album. Gonna get me some Glen Campbell and John Denver too, because that's the kind of mood I'm in.
