Product Description

From Amazon.com

A mixture of so-so standup routines and comedy-music hybrids a la Adam Sandler, Saturday Night Live's Jimmy Fallon provides just enough laughs on The Bathroom Wall to satisfy one's funny bone--for the first listen or two, anyway. Unfortunately, with the exception of his masterful impressions (a hilarious Bono among them) and the amusing Prince takeoff "Idiot Boyfriend," Fallon's shtick gets old pretty fast. On the music side, "Road Rage" has a few funny lines, but the Beastie Boys-inspired "(I Can't Play) Basketball" falls flat, as does the country-tinged "Drinking in the Woods." Meanwhile, for the standup portion, Fallon panders to his college audience with routines about "the walk of shame" and hotplates that might have worked in person, but on record sound shopworn and thin. As an impressionist, Fallon has a bright future, but he needs better material before putting out his next comedy record, even one as short (under 37 minutes) as this one. --Matthew Cooke

Being an Aussie, I'm a bit late to Fallon-fandom, but boy am I hooked now!
Like Tenacious D, Jimmy's brand of musical comedy is made to last. Long after the jokes have worn out I'm still listening to Snowball and Road Rage, coz they sound great. (I have to admit, Idiot Boyfriend isn't the same without that hilarious video.)

Of course the other highlights of TBW are Jimmy's brilliant impressions amongst the Trolls, Hammertime and Chris Rock. His standup routine is now a thing of the past, so it's nice for fans to have some examples of his early work as his career forges ahead.

If you're fan of Fallon's many talents, or fan of musical comedy in general, this CD is definately for you. Funny stuff! :-)
