The Naked Shakespeare was a case of a talented writer and musician obviously trying hard but missing a spark somehow.

xps Loudon Wainwright's version played over the end credits of Knocked Up iirc. I was shocked to find out it wasn't a Wainwright original.

I've loved Acnalbasac Noom for years, but nothing else in the Slapp Happy extended universe really did much for me until I heard Kew. Rhone. for the first time earlier this year, and it was all I wanted to listen to for weeks.
