You'll scratch your head at the simplicity and the just down-home folksieness of this album.
Where most folks say, " I can never remember jokes ", Seamus O Reilly shows you that " you gotta write 'em down ".
" Stuff 'im " is a one of a kind album; 45 minutes of pure and simple, straight up Irish jokes, all clean and mostly all hilarious; lets face it, where would we be without a good groan or two.
And if its Irish jokes you're into, these have been around Ireland for a long time. Se's dad fell out of the cradle laughing at most of them; or so he told him once. I think he was trying to get him to go away and leave him alone.
And, neither is this in front of a live audience; a studio recording which leaves you, the listener on your own when it comes to laughing; its just you, your self and the jokester, alone, together, but in a nice, intimate space which has a kind of honesty about it.
For ambience, one of Se's old bands plays Irish music, ( what else ), in the background. Se's on mandolin and the whole set-up gives you, the listener, a nice warm feeling. Interesting experiment and it works ! Methinks.

My second endorsement of the hilarious ' Stuff 'Im & Keep the Party Goin' '
author: Afke TtruscottI still enjoy this cd immensely, even after listening to it more times than I can remember - no better way to relax for an hour - thanks Sé.
Hooked from the very first time !
author: Afke TruscottThe very first time I listened to the cd Stuff 'im I was hooked and had to buy it, so I could listen to it to my heart's content. It is extremely funny and very well presented by Sé. His performance makes this cd a success. An excellent present for anyone in your life, for birthdays and Christmas. You can't go wrong, not only for giving it away, but also for your own listening pleasure. So - treat your family and friends and yourself to a very special cd.

http://personalweb.smcvt.edu/wwpv.html (you can find our webcast here) This album is full of great, home-spun tales abut the misadventures of way more then just Murphy and Flanagan. You'll hear the one about the Enlgishman, Scotsman and Irishman at the Olympics, the Father and the three closing- time drunks, the dead Catholic dog, the doctor, and many other amusing, folksy characters. The comedy, (not to mention Se's accent) is great, and the backround music from Se's band (in which he plays mandolin), is very catchy, but album seems to be lacking a stucture-Se' goes from telling one story to the next with no apprent segway in between. Kind of choppy, but the delivery of the stories is superb. I highly recomend this album for St. Patrick's Day, or anytime those of you Celtic wish to get in touch with your heritage, or if you're not Celtic, and you enjoy funny stories. Any way you slice it, this album is for you.
