If comedy were still like this . . ., Aug 19 2005
By Andrea Pietrzyk - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Cocoanuts/Monkey Business Ori (Audio CD)
. . . it'd be much better than it is - well, if you've seen "Monkey Business" you know what I'm talking about!This CD contains music from two of the Marx Brothers' early Paramount films, "The Cocoanuts" (their first) and "Monkey Business." Since these films were made in the late 1920s and early 1930s, the sound quality isn't the best (and the dialog occasionally carries over in the music), but considering that a CD like this is hard to find, it's certainly worth adding to your Marx Brothers collection. Not only do you get Chico's chord-smashing, finger-accented piano playing, or Harpo's dreamy, beloved harp playing, you get some of the Brothers' comedy bits from these two movies - such as their hilarious Chevalier "impersations" and the immortal "Why-a-duck?" exchange.
Just a tiny bone to pick: Harpo's solo in "Monkey Business" is actually called "I'm Daffy Over You" (written by Chico!), not "Sugar in the Morning" as the CD case says.

Great memories but nothing Remastered here., April 14 2006
By P. Deck "Cheval 52" - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Cocoanuts/Monkey Business Ori (Audio CD)
To call this CD remastered is a bit misleading. I would have gotten the same results by sticking a cheap microphone near the speaker of an equally cheap television set.The songs and sounds of the Marx Brothers brought back great memories but the skips in the CD and the overall quality of sound was a bit disheartening. If you love the Marx Brothers then buy this CD for the memories, as for the quality, I would definately think twice.
Listmania!
