Music to make you laugh by

No, I don't mean the text of a song as an example. Rather the musical content of a given piece of music, which by listening to it, be it in concert or at home in front of your rig, has made you laugh out loud or grin or smile, because it was funny or amusing in a clever way.

My favorite is Spide Jones "Let's Sing a Song of Christmas". I have the original LP my parents bought in 1956. It is now out on CD. I get a big smile on my face ever time I play it. I bought a copy of the new CD for the rest of the family for Christmas last year. Brings back those good old memories as a kid. The one song some of you may have heard that is on the record is Spike's version of "All I Want For Christmas is My Two Front Teeth".

Its Spike Jones, for those not familiar with him. I will second the nomination of Leroy Anderson's works. I have a multi LP set of most of them.

Katherina: If you want funny classical "Music" There is Mozart's "Ein Musikalischer SpaB" (A Musical Joke). It's catalog number is KV522. ------ There is also Bedrich Smetana'a "Dance of the Comedians" ------ Next listen to Sir Malcolm Arnold's "Grand Grand Overture". In addition to the orchestra, it is scored for 3 vacuum cleaners, a floor polisher, and 4 rifles.
