Ian – It’s no problem. It’s probably the fault of the low quality speakers I was using.

My copies arrived yesterday. 🙂 Tried watching it in the DVD player but I couldn’t understand much of what JT was saying/singing. I was very disappointed until I tried it on my laptop; the balance was much better and made it a lot more enjoyable. I’m 17 so, having not had a chance to see him live, it was very nice to see this DVD, and I enjoyed it a lot. Thank you to everyone involved in getting the DVD released. 🙂

Just a note to anyone who finds the sound quality terrible: try a different DVD player or PC. There was a massive improvement for me.

It is not an audio version of the BBC recording. It is a retrospective of his studio albums, singles, songs from an unreleased album, and outtakes. There’s a short Wikipedia article, with full track listing and details here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jake_in_a_Box

..and the same price in iTunes 🙂

Haha, strange; I heard a Tom Lehrer song for the first time at the start of this week and have been constantly listening to him ever since, so I knew the song the moment I saw your post.
I’ve been listening to the “Tom Lehrer in Concert” CD. Very funny lyrics and clever music. The audience reactions really add to it; there’s quite a bit of hissing :laugh:
Obviously this is JakeThackray.com not TomLehrer.com so I’d just like to say that Tom Lehrer is clearly no match for Jake Thackray.. 🙂
