"Vatican Rag" was a popular 1960s drinking song at the larger of our two Catholic universities. "Be Prepared" was the unofficial marching song of my Boy Scout Troop 895.

We just saw a staged review of Tom's songs called "Tomfoolery". Clever show, two guys and two girls, with each number staged and costumed.

Great fan of the music....The song about the elements is a classic too.

+1 on The Elements song :thumbup:

I get strange looks at NASA whenever I break out in a rousing rendition of Poisoning Pigeons in the Park or The Masochism Tango.....today's rocket scientists just don't understand satire and humor.

Used to listen to him on the Doctor Demento Radio Show on KMET in LA back in the early 70's. Fun stuff.

Been a fan since about 6 years old when my Dad bought his albums when they were new.

Oh Big Time. I used have several of his albums on vinyl back in the day.

"Pollution" was always one of my favorites:
