Our Take

Tom Lehrer’s “An Evening Wasted With Tom Lehrer” is like a musical rollercoaster through the mind of a mad genius. With his razor-sharp wit and satirical lyrics, Lehrer takes us on a journey through the absurd and the hilarious.

From the opening track “Poisoning Pigeons in the Park” to the closing number “We Will All Go Together When We Go”, Lehrer showcases his unparalleled ability to craft clever, catchy tunes that will have you humming along while simultaneously questioning your own sanity.

Lehrer’s unique blend of musical styles, from jaunty show tunes to jazzy numbers, keeps the listener on their toes, never knowing what to expect next. His biting commentary on politics, religion, and society as a whole is as relevant today as it was when the album was first released in 1959.

Standout tracks include the darkly humorous “The Masochism Tango” and the tongue-in-cheek “I Hold Your Hand in Mine”, both of which showcase Lehrer’s knack for turning the macabre into the melodic.

Overall, “An Evening Wasted With Tom Lehrer” is a masterclass in musical comedy that will leave you laughing, cringing, and possibly questioning your own morals. It’s an album that demands to be listened to again and again, each time revealing new layers of wit and wisdom. Trust us, this is an evening well spent.
