ST-11202, Hidden Records, 1973
A 1973 presidential parody album that's more miss than hit. There's some good talent here, too bad most of the material rearely rises above a poorly thought out improv idea. And just like the Jimmy Carter album, this was recorded in a studio with fake laughter.

Lol, I have this album. It was part of my parent's record collection that was passed on to me. Remember them playing it back in the 70s when I was a kid but haven't listened to it in years.
