Take some remarkably prescient plotting (1974's Everything You Know Is Wrong works as a parody of today's
paranormal craze) and add absurdist wordplay ("May I take your hat and goat?"). Factor in a fertile social and political
milieu courtesy of always-good-for-a-yuck Richard Nixon (like our erstwhile president, they began campaigning in late
'67 and by '74 were truly hysterical, albeit in a profoundly puzzling manner). Voil&aagrave; The Firesign Theater, the
only comedy group that took full advantage of the recording studio and the long-play record (they aspired to be the
Beatles of comedy, but it was the Beatles of "Revolution 9," not "Love Me Do"). Here is the fundamental overview of
humorists who made mirth "with your mind in mind." --Steven Stolder

60's humor holds up well in the 90's
If you were stoned in the 60's you'll love the pieces from these guys. Subtle (sometimes obtuse) humor aimed at just
about everyone. Parody of game shows, radio detective shows, ,advertising, even history. No sacred cows left
unskewered. Great fun
