Les Barker Look for Music

Steven Wright meets Monty Python in the person of Les Barker, comic poet and punster from Manchester, England. Listen to Les with friends. Pure entertainment.

Waterbug carries three kinds of Les Barker CDs from Mrs. Akroyd Records.

First, Les Barker performs his spoken word comic poetry. Les' poems have spawned a number of folk heroes: Jason and the Arguments, Cosmo The Fairly Accurate Knife Thrower, Captain Indecisive and Spot of the Antarctic, to name but two.

We also carry CDs of Les' songs, performed by some of the finest English folk musicians. Les's songs include parodies and his more serious material.

In addition, we carry sixty-odd different books of Les Barker's comic poems and musings.
