Voices from the Hollywood Past, Vol. 2: Interview with Tony Thomas

CD-Charts > Music > Radio Shows
by: Jack Benny

Release Date May 30, 1995
I am a huge old time radio buff, and I am very thankful for the many reissues of radio shows from the 1930s-1950s. Although this Jack Benny cellection is not one of the best if heard, it is definitly one to get. It contains the hilareous classics "Violin Lesson" and "King for a day". The skit this album does lack is the "Your money or your life" skit, when Jeck is held up by a crook and must decide between his neighbor's Oscar Award or his life. If you like old radio shows like I do, buy this album.

Classic Cornucopia of Confusion

CD-Charts > Music > Radio Shows
by: Abbott & Costello

Release Date November 30, 2001
This album which runs about 77 minutes includes 6 sketches by Bud Abbott and Lou Costello mostly from their run on radio. "Flee-Flu" includes an appearance by Peter Lorre as head of a sanatarium. "Laugh, Laugh, Laugh" is an enjoyable combination of music and jokes. And, of course, there's the full 7 minute version of "Who's on First?" which is A and C's best known routine. A very enjoyable set of comedy pieces culled from radio that is only slightly marred by imperfections in the quality of the original recordings (especially during "Who's on First?"). However, in my opinion, this does not appreciably detract from the enjoyment you will have listening to these comedy sketches for the first time or ... Read More:

War Of The Worlds (1938 Mercury Theatre Of The Air Radio Broadcast)

CD-Charts > Music > Radio Shows
by: Mercury Theatre On The Air, Orson Welles

Release Date July 11, 2000
It is, of course, the most famous radio program of all time; I daresay many members of future generations would have no idea that their ancestors actually sat around a radio once upon a time listening to dramatic presentations were it not for the unique acclaim this show continues to enjoy today. The broadcast was a seminal event in broadcasting history - not for its content, which was indeed very good - but for the dramatic reaction by untold listeners who were convinced that Earth was under attack from invaders from Mars. Callers deluged local newspapers and radio stations, men volunteered to step up and fight the terrible enemy, families rushed out of their homes to flee from the invaders. Some folks in the New Jersey area actually claimed ... Read More:
