5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent political satire from a heretofore-unknown rising star, February 10, 2007
This review is from: Pleading the First: Songs My Mother Hates (Audio CD)
I first heard Eric Schwartz on the Dr. Demento radio show a few weeks ago and went searching for his CD's. Buying a full CD after hearing one song is always a risk, but this one was worth every penny. Smart, biting political and social satire along with a decent singing voice - reminds me somewhat of Tom Lehrer (another of my favorites.) These records never get much airplay due to the censor-Nazis who enforce a bland common demoninator on the radio, but hopefully artists like this will find enough of a venue to survive. Our country needs 'em!
