5.0 out of 5 stars Get it while you can!
Anna's recorded works are rare, and until Sony Music started to replublish some of them, nearly impossible to find. Anna is a scream! Her parody of a subliminal advert on this CD is hilarious. Of course, her efforts to "prune-up the banana" are a hoot too!

2.0 out of 5 stars deceptive ad
Potential puchasers, beware.

The audio quality of this CD is rather poor, but the worst is that it is sold without the original booklet which included the complete texts of Miss Russel's creation. A shame especially for those whose English is far from perfect.
This should be clearly stated in the ad, but it is not.

4.0 out of 5 stars Screamingly funny!, February 25, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Anna Russell Again (Audio CD)
Anna Russell is truly an original. She makes music forms (the art song, the madrigal) hilarious by pointing out, simply, the truth about them. It helps to know the art form, but isn't necessary.

We enjoyed this comedy CD very much. Anna Russell had an amazing ability to adapt her voice to any form of music, as she demonstrates when taking off various 'modern' music styles of her time (and earlier). She is also an excellent humourist.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome, January 14, 2011

Anna Russel is wonderful and greatly missed.
Very funny, where humor usually fears to tread.
If you like real music, this is a required part of your library.
You will also enjoy sharing this with friends.

5.0 out of 5 stars Again and again, December 18, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Anna Russell Again (Audio CD)
In this CD Anna Russell shows that she can do stand-up comedy, destroys popular music, and murders the madrigal. All this is vintage Russell. We need a contemporary Anna Russell to do a job on Rock and Roll and Hip Hop. Perhaps the English will produce someone like that.

5.0 out of 5 stars Anna Russell again? But, of course!, March 29, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Anna Russell Again (Audio CD)
Anna Russell is a comic genius. Her musical parodies and spoofs keep you laughing throughout the record, huh CD. Her wonder--fully Brit--ish accent only adds to the effect. One should not miss Anna Russell in one's musical education.

When I listen to Anna Russell, I want to hear about opera. This CD is not an opera CD.
