Radio Now Live - Firesign Theatre - 2001

Here is the one I missed. It was recorded live on a West Coast tour in 1999. The material is mostly taken from Firesign's previous albums. If you are a completist you must have this. Link in comments.

A movie about a dozen superheros that do not get along so well. James Gunn wrote it. Jamie Kennedy plays AMOK and swears a blue streak. Link in comments.

Mr. Toad's Wild RidÓ— - 1996


This story is also known as THE WIND IN THE WILLOWS. The remaining Monty Pythons plus Steve Coogan, Nicol Williamson, and Stephen Fry deliver this, the definitive live-action version of TWITW. You may also prefer the 2006 effort with Mark Gatiss, Bob Hoskins, Tom Baker(!), Jim Carter and others - also definitive. Link in comments.

Red Elvises - Grooving To The Moscow Beat

1996. The band had already been in the business awhile when they recorded this, their first English language album and perhaps their best work. A few years later their gun-slinger guitarist split and so it went. Link in comments.

Sting - Bring On The Night - 1985


STING decided to assemble a new band and make a film about himself and it. Siskel and Ebert found the result cringeworthy and so can you. Special moments include STING pretending to read an EKG, and STING's minion-in-chief getting indignant about the new band feeling underpaid. Link in comments.

The Red Elvises - I Wanna See You Bellydance


This 1998 lineup was certainly looking for airplay. Only one of the original artists - Igor - remains in the group today. Link in comments. Listen to the hit single *Here*.
