Editorial Reviews

Product Description

In the twilight of Radio's Golden Age of Comedy none carried the torch higher or farther than Bob (Elliott) and Ray (Goulding). Part of the reason was a guy named Tom Koch, who wrote many of their hilarious sketches. This is Tom's story. Bob and Ray. And Tom. - by Dan Gillespie - At 68 pages in length, it's conveniently sized to - fit inside your lunchbox, - conceal behind the covers of more respectable books in public. Gary Owens ("Laugh-In" alumnus, Radio Hall of Fame inductee, and Los Angeles radio personality on KLAC 570 AM) says: "I love it ... I will put it next to my Capt. Marvel necktie, Porky Pig soap dish and my bottomless Don Knotts calendar!"

4.0 out of 5 stars a little recognition for an unknown writer, April 13, 2009
Any fan of the great radio comedy team of Bob and Ray would find much useful and fascinating background information packed into this short book. Tom Koch, a very talented and remarkably prolific writer, had the ability to craft sketches perfectly suited for Bob and Ray, who wrote (and improvised) a large number of their bits themselves. For example, Mr. Koch did not write Komodo Dragon or Slow Talkers of America, nor did he write Mary Backstayge, Jack Headstrong, Mr. Trace, or many other B&R favorites, but he did write such continuing gems as The Gathering Dusk, Garish Summit, and Anxiety. For this book Mr. Koch also went through the three published anthologies of B&R sketches and identified which ones were his. The book also includes a touching letter Bob Elliott wrote to Mr. Koch after the death of Ray Goulding. If you love Bob and Ray, I recommend this book (along with all available B&R CDs).
