The Wisdom Channel links page

Here are some research links collected by The Tom Lehrer Wisdom Channel. It's impossible to cover all the stuff about Lehrer on the Internet.

Scroll down to find the star marked * favorites like the transcript from The Music Show in Australia, and the interviews in The Onion, the Sing Out! Magazine, the Santa Cruz Sentinel and in the San Fransisco Weekly.

The * star marking is also on The Demented Database and on the "funny stuff" from an American radio station.

The link for Lehrer on BBC Radio 2 also has a red star *, since it is maybe the most reliable source of information about Tom Lehrer.

The links are often checked. On a good day even some fan bio's will be available. Many of the links are pop-up's. Turn off any pop-up blocking software, and do not use too many extra windows at the same time.

Enjoy reading about one of the the world's greatest musical satirists. Lehrer was - and remains - totally incomparable.
