An evening with Groucho (1972)
Groucho's 1972 concert performances at Carnegie Hall, Stephen's Auditorium at Iowa State University and Masonic Auditorium in Frisc make up the two-record set. It was originally issued with a fold-out sleeve, and four pages of picture with comments by various celebrities. Later the album came up with a singel slipcase sleeve with no pictures. An edited version (single album) was issued for promotional purposes to radio stations. It has a different back cover. This edited version was pressed as a picture disc in limited edition in 1978, using hand colored copies of the illustrations which had been inside the originally edition.

(Frank Ferrante as) Groucho sings (Kalmar & Ruby) (2001)
"Some of the funniest moments in the classic Marx Brothers films are the songs, particularly when they are sung by legendary Groucho Marx. Here award-winning Frank Ferrante, star of PBS's 'Groucho: A Life in Revue', performs a dozen of the comedian's hilarious, unforgettable tunes including 'Hooray for Captain Spalding', 'Lydia the Tattooed Lady' and 'Everyone Says I Love You'. Snippets of outrageous Marxian dialogue are sprinkled throughout as Mr. Ferrante interprets the music and madness of 'the one, the only Groucho'. Includes the music of Kalmar & Ruby and Arlen & Harburg. Features Broadway stars Craig Rubano and Carol Swarbrick. Arranged by Jim Furmston." (grouchoworld.com)

Thea Gilmore: Harpo's Ghost (2006)
On her website Thea Gilmore explains the title:
"You remember in the Eighties, they put all the Marx Brothers movies on TV. I was a big, big fan and Harpo was my favourite, as he was the clown, the one who never spoke. I would have been five or six.
"I remember watching and thinking that his most expressive moments were when he played his harp.
"I liked the idea of the ghost of that. Someone who expressed themselves better through the music they made than they ever could in words or actions.
"That's kind of how I feel about myself. I don't do the talking part too well, but I think I kind of make sense through music.
