5.0 out of 5 stars The funniest comedy team ever., May 8, 2000

This review is from: Who's on First: Collection Routines From 1940's (Audio CD)

People today laugh at Seinfeld, Sinbad and others. If they want to hear true comedy, listen to these two. Abbott And Costello simply can't be beat. And who can forget "Who's On First! " That is to comedy like "Stairway To Heaven" is to classic rock. This disc will leave you in stitches and wanting more.

4.0 out of 5 stars "Who's On First" never gets old, January 11, 2007

This review is from: Who's on First: Collection Routines From 1940's (Audio CD)

I've been looking for a digital audio version of "Who's On First" for quite a while. That routine alone is worth the price of the disc. The rest of the sketches are pretty typical Abbott & Costello and are worth a listen or two, but the title track is a timeless piece of Americana. This version is somewhat different than the other audio and video versions that I've heard, but as we all know, eventually we find that I Don't Know is on third base and we just "Don't Give A Darn"... Oh yeah, that's our shortstop!

Expect some static, and to miss the beginning of the routines if you are not ready immediately after pressing "play". Otherwise, it's all great, classic, stuff unjaded by years of re-performance.
