Novelty vocal. One of the lowest-rated records I've seen in old issues of Billboard. The Mar. 31, 1956 issue gave "A Bird in the Sky" a paltry 50/100 rating, adding: "Seems to be practically no excuse at all for this misguided attempt at humor. Appeal of the 'razzberry' on disks strictly limited." Flip side is "The Old Sow Song."
