Osama Bin Laden CD Sales Spike In Americana
Is the 'Tall Tales [of Osama Bin Laden] CD a collectors' item? It certainly might be for college students, history-fan truck drivers, and Americana lovers around the world. Sales still on the rise since the October first release date.
Hollywood, CA (PRWEB) November 3, 2004 -- Although the average price of the new Osama Bin Laden Parody CD (Tall Tales of Osama Bin Laden) doesnt raise any eyebrows, the questions surrounding its 'Collectors Item status apparently has been. Group orders and word of mouth referrals keep sales rising steadily through the mail and independent distributor orders since its release.
I dont know if its a collectors item or not" giggled Mindy Ataire, a college student from Sault St. Marie, who is a part-time clerk on the afternoon shift in a Northern Minnesota 'Gas it Fast station, answering a traveling drivers poignant question. As all I know is...ya know...its about that icky man with a beard" Mindy added with a sarcastic giggle, rolling her eyes, admitting to her lack of knowledge on the 'Grammy or 'Collectors item status of the CD shes been selling to motorists.
Since its printing earlier this summer, the Osama Bin Laden parody CD has been raising eyebrows and questions about its position and place in 'American History.
Well, the way I see it...weve got George Washington, Paul Revere, Nathan Hale, John [Ive got the biggest ba!!$ in the world Hancock" said Butch Shamley, a truck driver and history buff from Nashville, TN, standing against his Red, White, and Blue Kennworth, philosophizing a bit on the CD and its endless trashing of Bin Laden in cruel and disrespectful ways. Weve got a guy who signed his own death warrant (John Hancock) as big as would fit" Shamley said proudly in his mild southern drawl, what do they got...some dirty goober hiding in a cave for years...they oughta be damn embarrassed if thats their George Washington" Shamley added, kicking a stone across the lot.
How do ya think itd look" Shamley grinned, holding the Tall Tales of Osama Bin Laden CD (Cartoon Characters of Bin Laden, his Henchman, and Sigmund Freud) up to the side of his shiny rig, where he had a picture of the 'Screaming Eagle and the words Lets Roll."
Weve got real men like that Todd Beamer" said Shamley softer and slower, losing his jovial disposition for a moment, weve got men who
have a pair...this Bin Laden fella doesnt deserve so much damn respect."
Tall Tales of Osama Bin Laden is compilation of songs from writers all over the world, joined in this three-year effort to develop a new prism
upon which the cowardly terrorist could be viewed.
The album, which is for sale on racks across the US, as well on the net, is no small affair, trumpeting names like Bill Spooner, the legendary
rock guitarist of the 80s band sensation The Tubes (Shes a Beauty), as well as performing writers such as Ricky Fowler, whos obscurity suddenly dissipated, and morphed into industry wide recognition, through his 'poetically-callus and unceremonious jottings of picturesque thought-dreams, marveling themselves off the strings of his old guitar.
Instead of trading my sword for plow shares... I traded my weapons for an old guitar, a pencil and some writing paper" said Fowler humbly, When
the opportunity came to write for this project I jumped at the chance...after spending considerable time...in the Middle east and witnessing first hand the radical fundamentalist terror movement, I realize how absurd their logic and motivation really is...TALL TALES OF OSAMA BIN LADEN says a lot... it is humor, sewn with grains of grim truth...there is nothing dark or depressing on this CD...quite the opposite... it is a collection of 14 upbeat songs that cut through layers of radical dialogic thinking and sings it like it really is".
The CD musical is available for $11.99 US from the Tall Tales Of Osama website, as well as at online distributor CDBaby.com. Or, interested parties can call 1-800-Buy-My-CD, and ask for the Tall Tales of Osama Bin Laden.
