This 4-CD set contains 88 Bob & Ray routines: their courageous satire of the 1954 Army-McCarthy hearings, featuring Ray's dead-on impression of Senator Joseph McCarthy as Commissioner Carstairs, who investigates Harry Backstayge for building a 16-story house in his backyard. Plus Wally Ballou; The Life and Loves of Linda Lovely; Mary McGoon's War Surplus Bargains, (a Sherman tank); Commercials for pre-bent twigs and an anchovy ironer; Lawrence Fechtenberger, Interstellar Officer Candidate; The 64-Cent Question; Dr. MuHu, Hawaiian Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat Man; Matt Neffer, Boy Spotwelder; and many more.

This review is from: Classic Bob & Ray, Volume 3 (Audio CD)

What is there to say about a unit of natural humor, sponges that transformed mass media into a special kind of zaniness and satire only a few kindred minds could love? I am one. I listen to this as if for the first and my wive from another room listened to it for the first time. I laughed helplessly and she in her dour Hungarian fashion couldn't suppress a laugh. So now I have three volumes. Maybe in the future I will look for more. Meanwhile I will try to make do.
