What can one say dude? It's Cheech & Chong adult humor at it's best. A note worthy addition to an disfunctional individuals arsonal of crack pot low brow

Let's Make A New Dope Deal was the first regular studio album Cheech & Chong made after their break into the movies. (The Up In Smoke soundtrack that preceded it was just that, a soundtrack). This was material written for an album rather than a movie. There were some funny tracks on this recording but as a whole I didn't feel it was up to the standards of their early to mid 70's output. The cuts on side one each flowed into the next with various characters and situations while the cuts on side two were more individually staged scenarios. Clearly they were pulling inspiration from the events of the day which were far removed from the more hippie orientations of their older recordings. My favorite was the very last track "17th American Tour" in which a couple of apparently British rock stars were fighting over whose turn it was to throw the television out the hotel window, (most likely a parody of the real life antics of Led Zeppelin). Let's Make A New Dope Deal is not really essential Cheech & Chong for the casual collector but to their more avid fans it's still a fun album to listen to.

Issued in 1980, Cheech & Chong's LET'S MAKE A NEW ÐOPE DEAL (HS 3391) was their sixth of seven comedy albums and the first for WARNER BROS. Records. Audio quality is improved over their ODE LPs, with some nifty studio effects added, but the material isn't as strong as on their '70s releases. Side One is a suite of related tracks.


"SIDE" NOTES --

ONE -- 1.) Spoof of the George Lucas sci-fi epic opens with un-P.C. fey humor. 2.) Redneck couple can't get served, as she's "in drag." 3.) Multi-tracked bit at a Chinese restaurant. 4.) Mr. Redneck can't order a drink. 5.) Song where hamburgers are a sexual experience.

"SIDE" TWO -- 1.) Milwaukee DJ Buzz Wired makes random phone calls, trying to give away some BAM (Bumming Around Money). 2.) The same dummy ("Bob Bïtchin") from 5 years earlier bungles his way through the game and wins with a wrong answer. 3.) Headache sufferer visits a Chinese physician. 4.) Record company exec suffering from a headache is hounded by a pushy, overloud producer, who demos a punk single by Ronny Rump and the Rumptones. 5.) Two foul-mouthed Brit musicians quarrel and toss a telly out their hotel room window.
