  Kids.net.au - Encyclopedia George Bernard Shaw -
In 1898, he married an Irish heiress, Charlotte Payne-Townshend, and his first successful play, Candida, was produced in the same year.
He followed this up with a series of classic comedy-dramas, including The Devil's Disciple (1897), Arms and the Man (1898), Mrs Warren's Profession (1898), Captain Brassbound's Conversion (1900), Man and Superman[?] (1902), Caesar and Cleopatra[?] (1901), Major Barbara (1905), Androcles and the Lion (1912), and Pygmalion (1913).
After World War I, on which he took a controversial stance, he produced more serious dramas, including Heartbreak House (1919) and Saint Joan[?] (1923).

In 1897 The Devil’s Disciple, a play on the American Revolution, was produced with great success in New York City.
It was published in the volume Three Plays for Puritans (1901) along with Caesar and Cleopatra (1899), notable for its realistic, humorous portraits of historical figures, and Captain Brassbound’s Conversion (1900).
The latter has proved to be Shaw’s most successful work—as a play, as a motion picture, and as the basis for the musical and film My Fair Lady (1956; 1964).

I haven't found a weak song on here yet, it just seems like an all-round good CD, and the DVD is quite interesting albeit quite short.
The second album from The Ordinary Boys, Brassbound finds this mod-styled Brighton bootboys evolving from the Weller-style Britpop of their debut, Over The Counter Culture, making explicit the dub, reggae, and ska influences that previously only lurked in the shadows.
It’s a wise move, as the rollicking opening salvo of "Brass Bound" and "Boys Will Be Boys" – a natty, brass-laden number featuring Rankin Junior of reunited ska legends The Beat – neatly demonstrates.

With this in mind, The Ordinary Boys make a science out of not overstaying their welcome by returning to the fray with an upbeat ska orientated sophomore effort that hurdles along at fair pace.
With each of the 12 tracks averaging three minutes, what you get with Brassbound is a collection of tightly constructed songs that slam into each other like tanked up students at a university disco, all boisterous and leery.
But while originality is far from being their strongest suit, The Ordinary Boys make up for what they lack in creativity with boundless energy, enthusiasm and party spirit.

 The Ordinary Boys - Brassbound
With expectations suitably lowered by the folly of lead single and bad Madness sound-alike Boys Will Be Boys, things didn't look good for Brassbound; the scene set for a band partaking in a frankly embarrassing trawl through the arse end of fan boy ska commemoration.
There are enormous missteps, the calypso swing of On An Island and the cover of Rudi's In Love (another point where their homage becomes slavish) that, in conjunction with that single, make a triumvirate of obvious mistakes - but elsewhere things are bright, poppy and smart.
On paper, the 'Summer Of Ska' was a dreadful proposition, but if we can expect more records that approach the quality of Brassbound, then it isn't anywhere near as heinous as had been feared.

 The Ordinary Boys - Brassbound - Album Review
I love this new album, “Brassbound”, which is set for release on June 20 th 2005.
Typical Ordinary, the guy’s kick ass with the title track “Brassbound” - filled with great vocals and lead guitar from Preston, wicked drum rolls and James’ back with his slamming bass.

The Ordinary Boys briefly rode high on a tide of press adoration last year, following Morrissey's endorsement of them as the Next Big Thing.
Their type of music will never really progress any further than slick ear-candy which sounds a bit like classic old punk - the debts to Weller and London Calling-era Clash are heavy - but they write good tunes and play them well.
