Bernie Fass & Rosemary Caggiano: The Weather Company

 

From producer Bernie Fass and lyricist Rosemary Caggiano comes this charmingly eccentric children's record about that big multinational that makes everyone's weather. Don Joyce had this LP playing in the background throughout Negativland's immortal Over the Edge program The Willsaphone Stupid Show. Upbeat and catchy, occasionally downright rhapsodic ("Clouds"), and eventually slightly ominous (check out the ultimate track, where the company apologizes for all its mistakes).

Thunder, Lightning
Time For A Break

Snow Is A Gift To Children
