The words and music from Tom Lehrer's recorded collections - 'Songs by Tom Lehrer', 'An Evening Wasted with Tom Lehrer' and 'That Was the Year That Was' - including some songs previously unpublished.
Lehrer è stato un cantautore che si accompagnava al pianoforte. È noto soprattutto per le canzoni registrate negli anni '50 e '60, periodo in cui tenne anche lezioni di matematica ad Harvard e in altri college. Molte delle sue composizioni erano satiriche, tra cui "Fight Fiercely, Harvard", proposta come inno per la sua alma mater. Altre affrontavano questioni sociali contemporanee, come "Pollution" e "I Wanna Go Back to Dixie" (una visione molto poco lusinghiera del Sud durante l'integrazione), mentre alcune esploravano l'umorismo nero anticonvenzionale, come dimostra "Poisoning Pigeons in the Park".
