About The Record:

Think Ethnic! is the third comedy album of the Smothers Brothers. It reached No. 27 on the Billboard Pop Albums chart in 1964. Central to their act is the running sibling chaos of Dick Smothers trying to keep his wayward brother Tom on the intellectual beam; a comedy sphere that ranges from sheer nonsense to profound satire. Their arsenal is stocked with puns, barbs, jibes, needles, non sequiturs, malaprops, and delightful surprises. This album was recorded before a live audience at the Crystal Palace.
