Would that be for the mainstream tunes like Long Haired Redneck and Take this Job and Shove It, or the raunchy stuff from Nothing Sacred and Underground? :naughty:
 
Call me crazy, but I still enjoy the Chipmunk albums on Liberty Records. The Chipmunks were the brainchild of Ross Bagdasarian, a.k.a. David Seville. He sped up his own singing voice on three separate tracks, creating the harmonies for his alter egos, Alvin, Simon and Theodore. Bagdasarian got the idea for the Chipmunks after producing singles for Patience and Prudence, the juvenile singing stars at Liberty Records. Prudence had a Bozo the Clown record that routinely utilized sped up voices. Bagdasarian also produced the Rosemary Clooney hit, "Come On-A My House," which he co-wrote with his cousin, William Saroyan. I believe it was the explosive David Seville tantrums that drove most parents nuts, rather than the voices of the Chipmunks.

Yes, lots of people can get wound up when Take This Job and Shove It or You Never Even Call Me By My Name are played. I'm not that familiar with a lot of his stuff but I did see him once many years ago and he can certainly get pretty raunchy.
