right now, my vote goes to Robert Plant for his vocal "call & response" to Jimmie Page's guitar bits on "You Shook Me" from Zep 1...Nah Na Nah!!!...hilarious!........also, the vocal break on "Surfin' Bird" by the Trashmen...sounds like a bird on crack!...and Iggy's burp to begin "Raw Power"

The one were Dylan and the sound engineer are laughing there ass of, and have to restart the song.

2 songs come to mind immediately:

Roger Daltrey stuttering his way through "My Gereration" and Dylan and the Band laughing their way through "Rainy Day Women".

burping at the end of start me up is a little funny.

Elvis laughing uncontrolably on Are You Lonely Tonight...

What about Keith's little goat noise "Yeah" at the end of Brown Sugar?

The beginning of Bowie's Andy Warhol when he cracks up is good.

Wasn't looking too good, but I was feeling real well.

I'm actually listening to this one right now, and this always makes me laugh...

"sitting here in Queens, eating refried beans".

Happy Family - Ramones

Wasn't looking too good, but I was feeling real well.

Elvis yeah! What about the end of Mystery Train where he screams out and almost erupts in nearly laughter. According to good 'ol Sam it was because he thougt he'd screwed up. According to A. Goldman (who?) it was beacause some girls sneaked in and start screaming.....

John Lennon, following the Beatles' rooftop rendition of Get Back, "I hoped we passed the audition!".

Timeless.

The beginning of "Bob Dylans 115th Dream" is also funny. Albert Grossmann laughter is unpayable.

Hendrix forgeting a verse to LARS at Monterey and then acknowledging it in mid-song. And, pointing out Bob's grandmother in the audience!

Lady Killer Hendrix singing, 'scuze me, while I kiss this guy

McCartney almost cracking up during Maxwell's Silver Hammer.

McCartney cracking up on an early version of And Your Bird Can Sing. I believe it's on Anthology 2, the first cd. Absolutely hilarious.

I think you're right....they even used it for an ad not long ago

Yeah it is Leonard! It's really good! One of the highlights on Revolver imo.

He sang
scuze me, while I kiss this guy
at some concert. Forgot which one exactly. It was directed at a policeman if I remember well.
scuze me, while I kiss this sky
is the text on most versions.

The snoring at the end of In Another Land from Satanic Majesties. Funny stuff. Also, somebody says "Are you ready?" in a really humourous fashion on the Iron Maiden song King Of Twilight. It's just before they count in the song. I think it's their drummer Nicko McBrain. I could be wrong.

How about the Beach Boys "Barbara Ann" with the banter amongst the boys during the song... classic...

Pass the ashtray!

Unintentionally - Keith and Ronnie with Dylan at Live Aid. Sad.

The Band arent on that song (the only song they play on on Blonde on Blonde is 'One of us must know', i think...that would have been the Nashville session guys on that one. Good answer, though - even after all these years its still very funny

It must be the intro for "(We are the) road crew" on Motörhead's live album NO SLEEP TIL HAMMERSMITH.

It's not a rock songs but if you like puns and can find Kip Adotta's "Wet Dream" you will be in pun heaven...

Bod Dylan - Every Grain Of Sand (Bootleg series vol. 1-3)

A barkin' dog is entering the song....

Mick's great nagging cheeky schoolboy style Yeeeeeah Yeeeeeeah Yeeeeeeah's at the end of Sweet Neo Con....Yeeeah Yeeeeah Yeeeah!!



ROCKMAN

One that is much more COOL than "funny" (but I gotta mention it) is the "Oh Yeeeeaaah" in "Rocks Off". No-matter how hard you try, you cant say "yeah" better than that.

I can only think of muscial moments that are SO BAD that they in turn become funny. The first one I can think of right now is "Lucky Man" by ELP. That solo Emerson plays in tht gentle little tune on that monster monophonic Moog. He has no idea what he is doing; what the hell this mighty animal even does. But it is electric. Musically it is mindbogglingly horrendous!
Thge ending of "Lucky in Love" when Jagger rants about a "royal flush" and "ain't that a bust" are embarrassingly funny.
