Dip into the Retro Vault for a few moments with my earliest Retrobots. Enjoy.
When Bud and Lou take the stage they talk about girls, and baseball. Lou tells about his athletic prowess back in his younger days in Patterson, New Jersey. Bud gets Lou confused over a few different words, and figures of speech.
Skinny Ennis sings, Linda. Bud wants to put Lou on a rigorous exercize routine. Even Skinny gets in on some of the joking about baseball. Mix ups over real life baseball players ensues. Bessy May Mucho, a recurring character on the show, makes her appearance to drive Lou nuts over the way she pronounces words. After teasing from Verna Felton (or is that Alvea Raye?) it’s time for a song. Marilyn Maxwell sings, Hurrying Into Spring.
Ready? Bud and Lou finish off the show with their famous routine, Who’s on First. Just listen in and enjoy these classic radio moments.
Note: When a show is a classic, its worth doing again, and again. If you want to hear another show with comments from Keith, including a bonus track, make sure to visit this page on my site. Abbott and Costello – Lou Subs For Dimaggio. 470417. (retro347).
If you just want it without all the extra comments, give this one a try: Abbott and Costello – Lou Subs For Dimaggio. 470417, and 470619.
