Can't get enough funny songs by and for lawyers? Neither can we! That's why we put together the TBH Whole Shebang 7 CD Set, featuring CDs by the Bar & Grill Singers, Bob Noone & the Well Hung Jury, Dan Klau and the original cast of Soulless, Bloodsucking Lawyers: A Brief Musical (written by Toni Halleen).
The Bar & Grill Singers, all of whom are practicing attorneys in Austin, Texas, have entertained lawyers and non-lawyers since their 1991 debut in a one-performance musical revue. Now appearing year-round across the nation, the Singers spoof themselves and their profession with clever lyrics set to a variety of musical styles. They needle everything and everyone involved in the law, including clients, billing practices, legal ethics, bored jurors, and (gasp!) federal judges. The Singers write all of their own material, and arrange many of the songs.
Known as the "Perry Mason of Parody," Bob Noone has been satirizing the legal profession since 1980 with songs about the mind-altering antics of law school, tacky advertisements and ethically challenged lawyers. Bob sings about what's on all of our—and our clients'—minds, in styles ranging from blues to Carribean, lounge lizard to rock. Once you've heard Bob's songs, you'll agree that "You've Never Had this Much Fun With a Lawyer!"
It only took Dan Klau fourteen years of private practice—and thirteen of therapy (just kidding!)—to figure out that the best way to deal with the Sturm and Drang of the law was to find the humor in it. So that’s what he did. In his debut CD, The Billable Hour Blues, a collection of original songs and musical parodies, Dan sings about the trials and tribulations of being a young associate, lawyers who couldn’t give a client a straight answer if their life depended on it, the joy of bringing someone to the brink of tears during cross-examination, and more. Whether you are looking for belly laughs, or just a few gentle chuckles to brighten your day, The Billable Hour Blues is sure to please.
Soulless, Bloodsucking Lawyers isn't an ad hominem attack: it's the soundtrack of an original play by the same name written by Minnesota lawyer, speaker, comedian and playwright Toni Halleen. This smart, funny play follows an idealistic new attorney through her initiation into the world of the fictional corporate law firm of Auburn and Reed. Surrounded by self-important litigators, dancing judges, money-grubbing senior partners, the heroine struggles to make it in a commercial law firm while staying true to her need to give to society.The Broadway-style musical features all original music, co-composed with and arranged by Shirley Mier, with songs including: What's In It For Me?, Ethics Are Easy and (our favorite, for obvious reasons) The Billable Hour Minuet."Soulless, Bloodsucking Lawyers: A Musical" was the number one best selling show at the 2003 Minnesota Fringe Festival. The show was also selected by the audience as "Best Musical."
This 7 CD set set includes Licensed to Grill, A Time to Grill and Grilling Me Softly by the Bar & Grill Singers; Wingtips Optional and 2nd Helping of Chicken Suit for the Lawyer's Soul by Bob Noone & the Well Hung Jury; The Billable Hour Blues by Dan Klau; and the original cast recording of Soulless, Bloodsucking Lawyers: A Brief Musical—a whopping 91 songs in all!
