The Frantics had a radio show on CBC radio for many years, followed by a short
lived TV series. CBC put out one album "FRANTIC TIMES" which contains "Last
Will & Temperment", the first Boot To The Head sketch. I believe this album is
out of print (I found mine in a used record store), but I don't know for sure.
Check with CBC Enterprises. Their second album "BOOT TO THE HEAD" was out on
Attic records and contains "Tae Kwan Leap" (The second Boot To The Head sketch)
and a "Boot To The Head" song. I believe the album is still available. Very
funny stuff, indeed.
