When Stan Freberg released The United States of America in 1961, it was one of the first comedy concept albums ... and perhaps the funniest musical comedy never performed onstage. With a cast that included Jesse White and June Foray (as well as a dead-on Orson Welles impression by voice-over master Paul Frees), Freberg presented a madcap version of history that began with Christopher Columbus's insistence that "It's a Round, Round World." His crew, however, was unconvinced:
Crazy kind of scheme
It's a cockamamie dream
If we don't sight land we're gonna scream.
Later, a cautious Ben Franklin would express suspicion of the declaration Thomas Jefferson brought by for him to sign: "You go to a few harmless meetings, sign a few harmless petitions, and forget all about it.... Ten years later you get called up before a committee. No thank you! I'm not going to spend the rest of my life writing in Europe!"
For decades, fans were frustrated by the lack of sequels that would carry the story beyond the Revolutionary War. (After attempts to turn the material into a real Broadway musical were ruined by heavy-handed producer David Merrick, Freberg went on to a lucrative career in advertising.) Finally, in 1996, Freberg went into the studio with the surviving members of his original cast--as well as stars David Ogden Stiers, Sherman Hemsley, Tyne Daly, Lorenzo Music, and John Goodman--with a new batch of songs and skits that covered the period from the founding of the United States government in 1789 to the end of World War I.
Volume 2 is not quite as strong as volume 1, but that's like saying that Babe Ruth didn't hit as many home runs as Hank Aaron. There's still plenty of great material in "The Middle Years," like Francis Scott Key's first draft of his most famous composition: "Rumplemeyer's horseshoes are the best you can use, what so proudly he's nailed onto all kinds of horses." Or Ulysses S. Grant demanding a drink so he can keep on...
Pursuing the South
Over the hills
Fearless and brave, minus a shave
And crocked to the gills.
The two-CD set includes the original liner notes from the 1961 release; a 1989 CD reissue of the first volume; and the notes by Freberg, Dr. Demento, and Ray Bradbury for the sequel. It also contains a complete lyric sheet. Although some of the jokes on the first CD may be too arcane for younger listeners, The United States of America can still be called, without overstatement, a work of genius. --Ron Hogan
Customer Reviews:
They are right.......2006-06-30
The reviewers above who said the first volume is one of the funniest records ever made are right.
I listened to it when it came out and tracks like "A Man Can't Be Too Careful What he Signs these days" (Jefferson and Adams trying to get Franklin to sign the Declaration of Independence) and the one where Betsy Ross presents the new flag to George Washington are still indescribably funny.
But you can still buy the two volume set, pour yourself a nice dry Martini in a damp frosted glass, and use the disk with volume 2 for a coaster.
O;-)
A comedic gem (Vol. 1, that is).......2005-07-05
I have been a BIG fan of this album for well over two decades, since I came across the LP at the local library as a teenager. I was simply in stitches, and searched at used record stores until I found a copy of my own, which I eventually wore out in my repeated listenings.
So I was excited when I heard that after all these years, Vol. 2 was finally coming. But what a disappointment.
Vol. 1 has great songs like "Round Round World", "Take an Indian to Lunch" and "A Man Can't be Too Careful What He Signs These Days" that not only sparkle with satiric wit, but are great tunes I sometimes find myself humming.
The songs in Vol. 2, however, fall flat and just feel, well, forced. And that applies to all of Vol. 2 as well. The sense is that they had a list of punch lines they were set on, and didn't stop to think if it was funny or not. Funny is not a word that can be applied to Vol. 2, sadly.
So buy it for Vol. 1. You can just discard the other disc.
Five stars for Volume 1; one star for Volume 2.......2005-04-19
"Vol. 1, The Early Years" is without a doubt the best comedy recording I have ever heard. I personally discovered it back in the mid-80s, when I came across a copy of the album one Saturday at the radio station where I worked. It was listened to many a time "in cue" or after sign-off. I simply could not get enough of it. I also listened repeatedly to his "Original Cast" greatest hits album and the classic "Freeberg Underground" live recording he did in the mid-60s at the Hollywood Bowl.
Ever since then, I had hoped that a) Vol. 1 would someday come out on CD, and b) that he would eventually make good on his promise in the original album's liner notes to bring out a Vol. 2.
Well, both of my wishes came true. Vol. 1 is out on CD and as good if not better than I remember it. Plus, they added back in some parts that were cut so the original recording could fit on one LP. Vol. 2, on the other hand, is a *major* disappointment.
Vol. 2 simply tries too hard. It tries to tackle a huge amount of American history (from the late 1700s through the end of World War I) in 34 tracks on one CD (a virtually impossible task). It tries to satirize events during the Civil War (a hopeless task). And, its satire lacks the "let's not take ourselves too seriously" light-heartedness of Vol. 1, which is another way of saying it is trying to be Politically Correct.
It's a shame Vol. 2 wasn't written and produced soon after Vol. 1. I honestly believe Stan and Co. would have come up with another classic.
I too wish Rhino still offered Vol. 1 separately. From a marketing/business standpoint, I understand why they don't do it.
Still, if you don't have Vol. 1, it's worth the sacrifice to buy the two-volume set just to get it. Who knows? You may end up liking Vol. 2. If not, it makes a good (albeit expensive) coaster.
Ten Stars for Volume 1.......2005-02-10
My mom turned me on this LP and I listened to it repeatedly. It makes history SO funny! I have not heard this LP in years and years but I can still remember so much of it word for word.
Chris Colomubus and his duet with King Ferdenand is great!
Chris: It's a round, round world, it's a round, round world. I contend its round and its goin' be found, it's a round world now and its always been!
Kind Ferdindad: It's a flat, flat world, it's a flat, flat world, I contend its flat, as a welcoming mat, and you're sailing off the end, it's a flat world now and its always been!
If you are Stan Freberg fan, this is a MUST HAVE! And while you are at it, get yourself a nutcup and a couple of french horns!
A classic (if a bit corny)!!.......2004-12-24
This is a classic bit of Americana.
A must-have for anyone who enjoys good comedy and great production value.

Album Description
This is the second 13-song collection of unique recordings from 1971-1972. These recordings are absolutely not available on any other Waits album - making this package a must-have for any serious - or even casual - Waits fan. Four of the thirteen songs were never re-recorded for any other Waits album. 13 tracks.
Customer Reviews:
A Great Compolation Album.......2007-03-18
This CD is great. Every song is good so you can listen to the album as a whole without having to skip every other track. A good album to listen to while sitting around your house for an afternoon or taking an early morning drive. If you like great raspy male vocals you'll love Tom Waits. This is a CD worth buying.
great cd.......2007-01-12
I'm really a huge tom waits fan I own alot of his albums i saw this as well as vol. 1 on amazon and decided to give them a listen. i think they are both really good cds themselves and they give a goo picture of tom in his formative years an added bonus is to hear all the familiar songs which did make on to his records in what almost seem like demos.
A new look at some classic tunes.......2007-01-02
These are mostly demo songs, some of which were never relased, from Wait's early years (no kidding). Some of the songs on here, such as "I Hope I Don't Fall In Love With You" and "Ol' 55", would go on to become classics. Some of these songs are actually better than the versions that were put on the albums, especially "Shiver Me Timbers," here turned into a piano-ballad romp, rather than the jazzy outting featured on HEART OF SATURDAY NIGHT. THE EARLY YEARS, VOLUME 2 offers a good introduction into Waits's early music (sparse arrangements, beautiful lyrics), and is also a handy addition to previously-existing Waits collections.
Both volumes well worth owning, particularly for fan(atics)........2006-02-20
Who could ask for more? Previously unreleased recordings, quite evidently very well recorded demos, of one of the great musical artists of the last 35 years? Well, here it is, each volume perfectly listenable. In fact, a must listen for the fan as there's a few songs here now released on any other TOM WAITS record and those that are redone are stripped down versions, revealing the heart of the songs. Closing Time, his first lp, is a bit stiff. In fact, it's my least favorite of his 70's albums only because the producer just got a somewhat stiffled sound out of the recordings. Fortunately, they solved that in spades on future records.
What's delightful is that these songs provide a chance to hear Mr. WAITS in his least gravely voice of his career and at his youngest of his career.
'Hope I Don't Fall In Love With You' is a sweet song that fulfills his common setting of being in a bar and some yearning for unattainable love. He's got a way of telling a tale that surprises and pleases and takes you to the smokey piano lounge where his music comes from.
I love a good cover. Who's know the EAGLES didn't write this 'Ol' 55'? To hear TOM do it makes me forget all about their version (gladly). 'Nobody' has always been a potent song lyrically. Now we get to hear it in his simple presentation. A nice mix.
'Diamonds On My Windshield' has always been a favorite given that me and many other folks I know have taken that same basic drive from San Diego to L.A. I've probably driven that 100's of times in 35 years and sometimes it was while listening to this song. Wot a treat.
'Please Call Me, Baby' is another plaintiff love song and, again, this album gives us the treat of hearing it with his younger voice and plain instrumental accompanyment.
Yes, do buy all his 70's albums first. It's unfortunate Mr. WAITS didn't wanna have this released. Who can blame him as an artist? However, as a fan, the songs on both volumes here are irreplaceable and to be cherished. Thanks for makin' the music TOM. chrisbct@hotmail.com
Great album but the packaging caused my CD to break!.......2004-08-02
This is the second copy of the album I have bought, and probably the last. The first copy burned up in a fire. The second, which my wife bought me to replace the original copy, broke when I attempted to remove it from the spindle it was mounted on.
The original copy I had of The Early Years Volume 2 was a normal plastic jewel case, and there was no problem with taking it off the spindle. But the new packaging (Manifesto MFO 40602) has the CD mounted on an extremely tight plastic spindle that forces you to bend the CD when removing it. There is no "button" action to press that would release the CD, so the result is, the CD bends enough where it pops off, or it simply breaks. (I also have Tom Waits The Early Years Volume 1, which has the same spindle problem, but fortunately did not bend enough to break. I am now treating it with extreme care!)
As for the music on the CD (which I am familiar with thanks to the original copy which was destroyed by fire), it is truly wonderful: it reveals an acoustic and stripped down side of Tom Waits where you really see a side to his soul without the distractions of exaggerated blues influences or unusual musical arrangements. But there is no point buying a great CD if you can't listen it. Wait until Manifesto makes a quality case, or buy an older version, if you can find it.

Any anthology that explores the dawn of phonograph recordings promises to be rough going: I can't discern anything meaningful from the primitive recordings by the legendary conductor Arthur Nikisch. However, everything is more clear and vivid after the implementation of the microphone in 1926, and this material occupies four of these five CDs. Still, some artists sound a bit inhibited, and it's frustrating that we're often given only one movement from concertos played by pianist Elly Ney and cellist Enrico Mainardi. However, seasoned collectors will find recordings by Victor de Sabata, Paul Van Kempen, and others that they never even knew existed, plus a great, little-known 1943 performance of Schumann's Symphonic Etudes by Geza Anda. The set is crowned by an emphatic, rugged, deeply felt complete 1941 performance of the Mozart Requiem conducted by Bruno Kittl. The clarity of the remasterings is often amazing. --David Patrick Stearns

Sorry...I heard only fifth disc in this set........2000-12-06
I'm very sorry because I bought only fifth disc in this set. So, I don't review all of CDs. Bruno Kittel(1870-1948) was founder and conductor of his chorus-Bruno-Kittel-Chor. It was one of very highest vocal groups in German-speaking countries. They achieved many contributions. In 1928, Bruno-Kittel-Chor recorded first complete SP of Beethoven's Missa solemnis(with Lotte Leonard, Elenor Schlosshauer-Reynolds, Eugen Transky, Wilhelm Guttman and the Berliner Philharmoniker) in Deutsche Grammophon. Its SPs were imported to Japan, sold over 17000 sets. Its restored CD set were issued by Japan Polygram in 1998(I seeked this set so far but I have not this set because it was issued only Japan.). And they sung many times Beethoven's 9th Symphony with Oskar Fried(1929), Wilhelm Furtwangler(1937 and 1942) and many other conductors. In Third Reich, Kittel was premiered some of 'political' works include Christoph Muller's Deutsches Heldenrequiem-offered to Hitler-and participated concerts held by Nazi. For that reason, Kittel was buried in post-war German musical scene and chorus were disorganized. In World War II, they recorded for Deutsche Grammophon-Bach's Matthaus-Passion(1942. except 18 numbers) and Mozart's Requiem(1941)-twice. It's a last recordings they sung. In this fifth CD contains complete Requiem and final chorus in Matthaus-Passion(St.Matthew Passion). When I heard this recording first, very surprised. Part of Introitus' soprano solo part and Offertorium's last refrain, verses related 'Jewish' were erased and replaced other Latin words(Sion->coelis, Jerusalem->hic in terra, Abrahae->Domini). It's a Nazi's sensorship obviously. What a cruel purges! But they performed very humanistic-added Romantic a little-this last work by Mozart. In solo parts, soloists-Tilla Briem, Gertrud Freimuth, Walther Ludwig and Fred Drissen-sung very moved with rich German accents. And choral parts-especially Dies irae and Lacrimosa, they performed with fear and tears probably. And they sung in Kyrie and Communio's difficult fugue part very superbly. Certainly, they are very highest chorus in German. I think it's a best of pre-war and wartime Requiem recording with Bruno Walter's live recording in 1937. But, final chorus in Matthaus-Passion is 'too' romantic performance. Bach's taste disappeared 'perfectly' in this recording. For that reason, this recording is not re-issue by CD present day. And this CD contains other two small choral works sung by Thomanenchor Leipzig-Brahms' In stiller Nacht conducted by Karl Straube(1930) and Anonymous Christkindleins Wiegenlied. Restoration quality is not bad. But scratch noise remained in part(very high in Introitus' opening and some other parts). I think Deutsche Grammophon's staff were restored like a original SP added frequency.
