Excelsior You Fathead!
Listening to our great leader's selected shows from years ago is very uplifting, and I am collecting all that are available. His candor and often unique point of view is what got me through some difficult teenage and young adult years, and I enjoy hearing his voice whenever I can.

Great to hear Shep, even with second-rate material
I've been a Jean Shepherd fan since my high school days in N.J., when he was at his radio prime out of New York City. This collection of Cd's captures his inimitable personality, his infectious laugh and his general sense of the absurd. Unfortunately, it has none of the semi-autobiographical reminiscence that made "A Christmas Story" such a popular favorite and which...

I've been a Jean Shepherd fan since my high school days in N.J., when he was at his radio prime out of New York City. This collection of Cd's captures his inimitable personality, his infectious laugh and his general sense of the absurd. Unfortunately, it has none of the semi-autobiographical reminiscence that made "A Christmas Story" such a popular favorite and which mark Shepard's most memorable work, at least for me. Perhaps this is only available in the printed form -- check out, for example, "A Fistful of Fig Newtons" A Fistful of Fig Newtons. But even second-rate Shepherd is worth the price! Technically, my only complaint -- which others have made as well -- is that the producers did not insert tracks, so that there's no way to go directly to favorite sections of these 45-minute programs.
