Editorial Review: Album Description: They’re back…they’re battling…they’re the Bickersons! By the time Don Ameche and Frances Langford recorded these two classic comedy albums for Columbia in 1962, they had already been stars for close to two decades, starting with their own radio show which began airing on NBC in 1946 through their many appearances on television during the ‘50s. But there remained one more medium to conquer: the then-newfangled 12’ long-playing record. So, John and Blanche started up some old arguments and found some new things to fight about, too, and the result was a pair of charting albums in 1962, here reissued in their entirety with new liner notes! All the things that made them America’s favorite fighting couple are here—his snoring, her spendthrift ways, his drinking, her family. But despite it all, they loved each other, which was the real genius of the series (and creator Phil Rapp)…everybody knew (and still does!) a couple like John and Blanche Bickerson. Includes "Breakfast with John and Blanche," "Later That Same Evening," "Bickersons At Sea," and "Wedding Anniversary" on the first record and "Rounds 1-4" on the rematch. A pair of comedy classics, exclusively from Collectors’ Choice Music! Customer Reviews

Rating:  - A visionary, if edgy, brainchildImagine the serious talent, vision, creativity and depth of perception that it takes to convert a sad, angry thing like spousal arguments into an engaging comic form. What these 2 artists accomplished built a distinctive niche in a hotly competitive time, and redefined our collective concept of comedy. They deftly walk the tightrope between building of tension and its release, between grounding their routines in reality to give them credibility vs. taking off from there to keep their act and their audience more comfortably in the realm of the surreal. This CD is unusually generous in its quantity of material, and I got a good few belly laughs from it, though their frequency was notably less than when I first heard similar material in its ...
