Alright orenee, where do you start with this guy Slim Gaillard?? As mad as Spike Jones or Spike Milligan……..or maybe even madder! We present some crazy music from the man himself, including tracks from the following "The Vout Orenee Man"; "Opera in Vout"; "Slim Gaillard Rides Again" and "Smorgasbord... Help Yourself!" Where it all fits into the jazz landscape is anybodys guess, you pay's your money and you takes your choice! Here's a few quotes from the original liner notes to help you on your way! "Most people know and relish Slim Gaillard's genius for musical slapstick", "This is a goulash of funny songs salted here and there with some straight cooking instrumental blues and resembling nothing else you've heard before". And we think this last one sums up the whole gig! "Here is Slim Gaillard's "Smorgasbord" you take your choice and you have your fun".
