CD Reviews

A great collection of Abbott and Costello comedy

06/30/2002

(4 out of 5 stars)

"This album which runs about 77 minutes includes 6 sketches by Bud Abbott and Lou Costello mostly from their run on radio. "Flee-Flu" includes an appearance by Peter Lorre as head of a sanatarium. "Laugh, Laugh, Laugh" is an enjoyable combination of music and jokes. And, of course, there's the full 7 minute version of "Who's on First?" which is A and C's best known routine. A very enjoyable set of comedy pieces culled from radio that is only slightly marred by imperfections in the quality of the original recordings (especially during "Who's on First?"). However, in my opinion, this does not appreciably detract from the enjoyment you will have listening to these comedy sketches for the first time or for the 1000th time."
