Much (though not all) of this was recorded with
Sophia Loren, who had just co-starred with Sellers in The Millionairess. Although it's certainly amusing, this doesn't rank as high as his earlier albums -- the duets with Loren are quaint, but don't have the biting edge of his best music satires. That didn't stop a couple of them from becoming British hits (both of those, "Goodness Gracious Me!" and "Bangers and Mash," are included here). Sellers goes it alone on the spoken comic sketches, although these again aren't as good as the ones on his first two LPs. Reissued in its entirety as part of the
Celebration of Sellers box.
