Lenny And The Squigtones - Lenny Squiggy Present Lenny And The Squigtones
Review by Jérôme Aoustin
Lenny Squiggy Present Lenny And The Squigtones is a classic album by the fictional band Lenny and the Squigtones. The album was released in 1979 and features 10 tracks that showcase the band's unique blend of rock, doo-wop, and comedy.
The album opens with the upbeat and catchy "Night After Night," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. Other standout tracks include "Creature Without a Head," which features some impressive guitar work from Lenny, and "Love is a Terrible Thing," a hilarious ode to heartbreak.
Throughout the album, Lenny and the Squigtones display their impressive musicianship and knack for comedic timing. The band's chemistry is evident in their tight harmonies and playful banter between songs.

RIP David L Lander
I think Christopher Guest is on this album, playing guitar (AS NIGEL TUFNEL, NO LESS!) with Michael McKean!
Methinks I doth detect the beginnings of "Spinal Tap"?

My son started a fund to help replace my Van, www.gofundme.com/kxotws
On the morning of January 2, 2015 at approx. 3:15 am my dad lost his only vehicle to fire just 2 days before his 69th Birthday. This was also his van he used for his work as a courier driver across country. Since the fire, he has been stuck at home and not even able to go to the store, or even go to work as he was a owner operator. When his company needed a load ready to go with a moments notice, they would call him to roll out to complete the mission. He loved the open road and is ready to get back out as soon as possible. This was his way to clear his mind as he lost his girlfriend of 20 years suddenly on April 2, 2013. This hit him extremely hard as they were very close. Unfortunately at the time of the fire he didn't have coverage for fire. With the reduction in incme, funds were tight and he had to make decisions on what got paid and what didn't so he had to reduce coverage on the van. One never really plans on your vehicle to catch fire. Any help would be greatly appreciated even if just $1, $5, $10 or what every you can or willing to offer to help get him back on the road. We are not looking for a new vehicle, just something dependable and able to handle the heavy loads
Thank You in advance.
