Kramer's big plan was a trilogy of triple-LP's like The Guilt Trip. What followed instead in 1994 was The Secret of Comedy, a conventional length single album. Kramer had set out to make the 2nd part of the triple trilogy, but once he'd completed the two LP sides, he clearly saw that it had an obvious beginning & a concise end.
The Secret Of Comedy is a darkly humorous but essentially "pop" venture laced with Kramer's catchy songs, brimming with lyrical surprises that seem more accessible than on The Guilt Trip. Still, The Secret of Comedy maintains the found-sounds bites & surrealist text manipulations that make all of Kramer's output as an audio artist & producer so other-worldly.
On The Secret of Comedy: Kramer - most instruments; Randy Hudson - guitar; Bill Bacon - drums.
