The annual CD from the Strawberries is in the shops now and its always worth a plug every year as all the proceeds go to charity. This year FM104's Help a Dublin Child Appeal with Barnardos is the charity of choice.

I'll be picking up the album later today in HMV and will post the tracklisting over the weekend. As always, charity or not, its well worth the money ;)

That tracklisting:

1) The Laughing Football Man (I havent heard anyone laugh like this since the cartoon policeman in the old Lemsip ad ;))

2) Joe & Shiela - New Jingles For Joe (Anything with Joe & Sheila on this CD is Strawberry gold)

3) Matt Molloy - Phone Messages

4) Colin Calls Mr Pancake

5) Gavin Meets Glenda Gilson

6) Wally The Gas Man (I nearly choked on my coffee laughing)

7) Kid In Car (The Famous April Fools) (FM104 salesperson convincenly pretends to be kid and fools most of the listeners)

8) Eddie Hobbs - B&B

9) Joe & Sheila Go To Oxygen

10) Sssimon Sssstevenson

11) Matt Molly - The Mayo Wind Up

12) Paudgie Meets Lucy Kennedy (very funny again, Lucy handled this well)

13) Colin Sends Flowers To Angelina

14) Competition Goes Wrong

15) Naked Camera's Dirty Aul Wan Plays Pop Life (PJ hits all the right notes here, classic cut)

16) Joe & Sheila Los Angeles Style (the CD finishes on its strongest note, excellent :D)



The good news is the CD was sold out in 2 shops I was in yesterday which means it must be flying. It was the 3rd biggest selling compilation last week according to IRMA which is no mean feat at this time of year when every Now Thats What I Call A Craaaazy Christmas Party is on the shelves.

All in all a very funny retrospective of the most successful year yet for the SAC :notworthy
