Waaaay back in the late 1990s, my friends and I were addicted to Sifl and Olly, MTV’s late-night sock puppet comedy show. (Well, some of my friends. Sifl and Olly turned out to be a real lightning rod: either you loved it or loathed it).

Anyway, the creators of that show (Liam Lynch and Matt Crocco) also made a comedy album called History of America? lampooning America’s gilded past. Their “Ansel Adams’ Theme Song” stands out as the most absurd, uh, “interpretation” of Adams’ “historic” legacy. More than legendary photographer, Adams attains super-heroic status. Sample lyrics:

Who at the age of 10 built Cincinatti … Ansel Adams! Who put American flags on all the dolphin’s dorsal fins … Ansel Adams!
