I’ll be the first to admit the Kazoo is an acquired taste. We’re talking small doses before I’m strangling someone, but in the hands (or mouths) of the Two Man Gentleman Band, the kazoo represents a time long ago when fun was had and folks were free of care. Listening to Andy & Fuller (the gentleman) will undoubtedly put a smile on your face. Their new album “heavy petting” is a whirlwind of intelligent lyrics and banjo plucking. Songs like “When your lips are playing my kazoo” and “William Howard Taft,” an ode to the man and his size, are both smart and catchy. Oh, and if you go to a show you get a free kazoo. How cool is that?
