Book Reviews of Classic Bob & Ray: Selections from a Career, 1946-1976: (Volume Two: 4 Cassettes, 4 Hours (84 Selections))
Book Review: A Bob and Ray fanatic says: Long live Bob and Ray!
Summary: 5 Stars
In my opinion, Bob and Ray's stuff from the 1950's is by far their best. Then they were young, fresh - and often improvisatory! CLASSIC BOB AND RAY VOLUME 1 includes four episodes of "Matt Neffer, Boy Spotwelder", which has to be the most surreal, dream-like, (and utterly pointless) series ever conceived. There are also episodes of "One Fella's Family", another of B & R's great pieces. The bits with "Arthur Sturdley" (a take-off on radio personality Arthur Godfrey) are priceless! So are the episodes of "Insomniac Theatre" and the reports from Wally Ballou and Artie Schermerhorn. B & R's capacity for voices and comic characterization is amazing. This little-known comedic duo will bring you endless laughter, joy, and emotional health. Long live Bob and Ray! And don't forget to buy THE BEST OF BOB AND RAY and BOB AND RAY, THE LOST EPISODES as well!
Note: I know that "One Fella's Family" was a parody of the popular soap opera "On Man's Family" and of the show "Vic and Sade". But what was "Matt Neffer" based on, if anything? I'd be interested to know.
