Lies Maclean & Maclean told me about rock & roll

This is another wacky exerpt from the Canadian comedy duo MacLean & MacLean's Bitter Reality album. They really were something live! Here they do several songs, including a spoof of Bob Dylan. Incredible. I recall the song "Put in your mouth Mrs Murphy", sung by co-workers in the Air Force. Great to find the cut! The boys talk about their early years in the '60's doing folk, then moving on to Toilet Rock & Genital Rock where I think they found their niche.

Bitter Reality - MacLean & MacLean

I recall that Master Corporal "Shorty Bone" use to recite the following toast when I worked with him in the Air Force at CFB Toronto in the late 1970's - early 1980's:
"Here's to the hole that never heals, the more you rub it the better it feels
And all the soap this side of hell, won't wash away that fishy smell. Wine, women, song, and vice, syphilus, blue balls, crabs, & lice, we have had them all by Jesus Christ,
Gentlemen the queen!"

I'd forgotten that until I came across this album.
This cut is titled The Gross Manual.
MacLean & MacLean has this on their Bitter Reality album. They were Maritimers that were popular at the Toronto clubs The Chimney & El Mocambo during the late 1970's & early 1980's, when I was with the Air Reserve at Downsview. Photos are from family day at Downsview, working with the 2RSU at the hangars there, a couple from Terry Hill, and the last ones are from the 400 squadron reunion in 2002 at CFB Borden. "Per Ardu Ad Astra".

Dildo Dawn - MacLean and MacLean

Another classic from the Canadian comic duo.

Dolly Parton's Tits - MacLean & MacLean

Probably the best known song by the Canadian comedy duo. I know it's been covered by other bands. From the 1982 MacLean & MacLean album "Suck Their Way to the Top" and also on their Dirty Thirty album.

Star Wars spoof - MacLean & MacLean

The Canadian comedy duo of Maclean & Maclean spoof the Star Wars movie, in a live recording at a Toronto club in the late 1970's. From the "Suck Their Way to the Top" album.
Incidently, it's said that George Lucas got the idea for the X fighter attack on the Death Star sequence from the movie 633 Squadron. I now have the film & will likely post a clip soon.

F**K Ya - MacLean & MacLean

Here's 3 versions of Canadian comic singers MacLean & MacLean's Fuck Ya, that I posted at YouTube. I was surprised that nobody hadn't already posted this tune. This was a sort of theme song for me & a few others when we were serving with 400 Air Reserve Squadron at Downsview. The first one is a live recording from the "Suck Their Way to the Top" album. The middle one is a short version from an unknown recording. The last one is from the "Go To Hell" album.

Johnny & Kenny

Ever play cards with Newfs?
Well this MacLean & MacLean routine (and cleverly editted video) says it all...

MacLean & MacLean "I've Seen Pubic Hair"

Another classic recording from this duo, back in there day. Sadly both of them have passed away.

MacLean & MacLean "Toilet Rock" exerpt

MacLean & MacLean were obscure Canadian performers back in the 1970's. I had this album at one time & their brand of comic lewd songs were known among some of my crew back then, and a few of their songs were hits among colleagues in the Air Reserve. Like a number of the non-mainstream acts back then, I don't think their material was ever released on CD or other digital media, so this YouTube conversion is a treat!
