United StatesI have been trying to find these Bob and Ray recordings for a long time without success. I remember what a stir of laughs they caused at the time and the amazement at the stereo sounds! Thank you for “exhuming” them! I definitely will buy if you produce more in the series! The Wally Ballou street interview of the cranberry vendor (with bank robbery) and the dentist’s office are among my favorites. I bought the Melachrino album “Under Western Skies” as a result of the Bob and Ray recording. I do seem to remember the sound on “Ghost Riders” being better but it HAS been sixty years...! Could we please have some more?
Description:
In the early days of stereo, novelty titles were released to show off the new format, some of them used comedy with music, these two RCA titles are great examples of that with excellent sound.
