Breakfast in Heaven is a comedy album by Father Guido Sarducci (Don Novello), released in 1986 by Warner Brothers. It was recorded at Washington Hall, University of Notre Dame. It was Novello's second album.
Critical reception
The Fresno Bee called the album "funny and well-done, with one very annoying flaw ... the laughs that follow each gag are clipped, obviously cut short in the studio." The San Francisco Chronicle wrote that "Novello is an underrated comic, maybe because his style is so understated, but there's not a wasted moment on this clever, hilarious album."
