Albums Produced By Gary Usher
An album is a collection of audio recordings issued on compact disc (CD), vinyl, audio tape, or another medium such as digital distribution. Albums of recorded sound were developed in the early 20th century as individual 78 rpm records collected in a bound book resembling a photograph album; this format evolved after 1948 into single vinyl long-playing (LP) records played at rpm. The album was the dominant form of recorded music expression and consumption from the mid-1960s to the early 21st century, a period known as the album era. Vinyl LPs are still issued, though album sales in the 21st-century have mostly focused on CD and MP3 formats. The 8-track tape was the first tape format widely used alongside vinyl from 1965 until being phased out by 1983 and was gradually supplanted by the cassette tape during the 1970s and early 1980s; the popularity of the cassette reached its peak during the late 1980s, sharply declined during the 1990s and had largely disappeared duri ...

''The'' () is a grammatical article in English, denoting persons or things already mentioned, under discussion, implied or otherwise presumed familiar to listeners, readers, or speakers. It is the definite article in English. ''The'' is the most frequently used word in the English language; studies and analyses of texts have found it to account for seven percent of all printed English-language words. It is derived from gendered articles in Old English which combined in Middle English and now has a single form used with pronouns of any gender. The word can be used with both singular and plural nouns, and with a noun that starts with any letter. This is different from many other languages, which have different forms of the definite article for different genders or numbers. Pronunciation In most dialects, "the" is pronounced as (with the voiced dental fricative followed by a schwa) when followed by a consonant sound, and as (homophone of pronoun ''thee'') when followed by a ...

Double Album
A double album (or double record) is an audio album that spans two units of the primary medium in which it is sold, typically either records or compact disc. A double album is usually, though not always, released as such because the recording is longer than the capacity of the medium. Recording artists often think of double albums as being a single piece artistically; however, there are exceptions such as John Lennon's ''Some Time in New York City'' (which consisted of one studio record and one live album packaged together) and OutKast's ''Speakerboxxx/The Love Below'' (effectively two solo albums, one by each member of the duo). Since the advent of the compact disc, albums are sometimes released with a bonus disc featuring additional material as a supplement to the main album, with live tracks, studio out-takes, cut songs, or older unreleased material. One innovation was the inclusion of a DVD of related material with a compact disc, such as video related to the album or DVD-A ...

Not Insane Or Anything You Want To
''Not Insane or Anything You Want To'' is the sixth album released by the Firesign Theatre on Columbia Records. It was released in October 1972 and includes some material that was recorded in the studio as well as some material that was recorded before a live audience. The full title is listed on the spine of the record album as ''Not Insane or Anything You Want To''. The abbreviated title ''Not Insane'' appears on the front of the album cover, while ''Or Anything You Want To'' appears on the back cover. It is usually referred to simply as ''Not Insane''. The album was mixed from parts of a live performance recorded during the ''Martian Space Party'' radio broadcast and film, a 1970 live performance of a Shakespeare's plays, Shakespeare parody ''The Count of Monte Cristo'', and newly recorded studio material. The album was a commercial and critical failure, and the group years later would call it "a serious mistake". They immediately went on hiatus for a year, with Proctor and Be ...

I Think We're All Bozos On This Bus
''I Think We're All Bozos on This Bus'' is the fourth comedy album made by the Firesign Theatre for Columbia Records, released in August 1971 on standard stereo vinyl LP, and Quadraphonic LP and 8-track tape. It was nominated for a Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation in 1972 by the World Science Fiction Society. The title comes from a line spoken by one of the two main characters, and contains a pun on the term '' computer bus'' since the story parodies then-developing computer technology. It also parodies Walt Disney parks. Plot This album, like its predecessor '' Don't Crush That Dwarf, Hand Me the Pliers'', is one complete narrative that covers both sides of one LP. The first LP side is 20 minutes 51 seconds, and the second side is 18 minutes 7 seconds. Side one starts with an audio segue from the end of ''Don't Crush That Dwarf, Hand Me the Pliers'': the music box tune played by the ice cream truck chased by George Tirebiter is heard approaching, played this time b ...
