Wikipedia:

George Bowser and Rick Blue, better known as Bowser and Blue, are a musical duo from Montreal who write and perform comedic songs. Their material ranges from absurdist humour ("I've Got a Great Big Dick", "Canadian Psychedelic Snowboarding Team", "I'm in Like with a Dyke Named Spike") to pointed political and cultural satire ("You Should Speak French", "Driving in Quebec", "Bouchard's Speech", "Clinton's Thing", "Rappin' Rambo").

Both longtime members of the music scene in Montreal, Bowser and Blue began working together as a duo in 1978. They still perform and travel extensively across Canada.

Four of their albums were released on the Justin Time label; all others since have been on their private You Guys Publishing. Montréal Souvenirs is their only studio album on You Guys.
