I can't wait for the Freberg box set. One song I've been dying to get my 
hands on is "Pass the Other Udder", which was the B-side to "Try".

Hi gang,
About a week ago someone asked about the Chase and Sanborn hour with M W 
as guest. That reminded me of my own West-problem.
Last year I heard a program about M W here in Sweden. In that, was an 
extract from a show with her and Perry Como, quite funny.
All they said was that it was from a radioshow from the 30s. Does anyone 
know what program that could have been and if it's available somewhere. 
I'd love to hear the rest of it.

Regards:
Marc

Message-Id: <[removed]@[removed]>

Back in the early 1970's, I use to listen to Herb Jepko and
his, "Nightcap Show," on KSL in Salt Lake City, Utah.
The last that I heard of Herb, he was on the Mutual Broadcasting
System.   He was later replaced by Larry King.  My question is,
is Herb still doing his show somewhere locally?

Does anyone know if any companies have released any Abbott and Costello radio
appearances on CD?  I have LP transcriptions and a couple of tapes.  I'm
particularly interested in their first appearance on the Kate Smith Show.  

Also -- I had the opportunity to interview Christine Costello and Bud Abbott,
Jr. a few years ago for a radio special and found their insights into their
fathers were fabulous.  I have an aircheck if anyone's interested.

	For those who have missed it so far, there is one more chance to catch
the hourlong Jack Benny documentary.  Set your VCR!  
	It's on Wednesday at noon Eastern Daylight time April 24.
I saw it on Thursday, and naturally my tape failed, so I called HBO to 
find out about a rebroadcast.  Don't miss it. It's terrific!  Lot's of 
clips of Jack being interviewed on many old talk shows, comedy clips, and 
interviews with Jack, daughter Joan, George Burns, Carson, Dinah Shore, etc.

here a time of 12n Sundays but have yet to hear it at that [removed]

it was on Capitol Records.

Message-Id: <[removed]@[removed]>

Many of you have the two album set of Frebergs radio programs and
also Stan Freberg Pesents the United States of America. I'll have to
buy the new CD to pick up the bits left off the record. But I have
one LP I haven't seen mentioned on OTR. It is "Freeberg Underground
Show #[removed] a ZOWIE new medium: PAY RADIO" It is Capitol
T 2551.
Side One
Opening
Father of the Year Award
The Shaft Theatre: "The Flackman and Reagan"
Digit Dialing Demonstration (They Took Away our Murrayhills!)

Side Two
Pop Art Interview
Anybody Here Remember Radio?
Folk Songs for Our Times:
	1. Oh Dat Freeway System
	2. Poor Booby Baker
	3. They Took Away My Diner's Club Card
	4. Which is the Girl? Which is the Boy?
Closing

Flackman and Reagan was issued as a single. It was the year Reagan
ran for governor of California. Have to look that up. No copyright
date of the album cover.
The cast includes the usual suspects: June Foray, Peter Leeds, Naomi
Lewis, Byron Kane, Charles Lane, Bill Woodson, and Donna Freberg, Jr.
Music conducted by Billy May and George Bruns with Jud Conlon's Rhythmaires.

Hi all, I ran across a couple of shows in my collection called 2,000
Plus. I was wondering if anyone had any information on it. Also a few
years ago I saw radio versions of The Secret Life of Walter Mitty and
The Birds. I haven't seen them anywhere since. Has anyone got them or know
where to find them?
