Customer Review: The Firesign's devotion to Old Time Radio was evident in much of their work, including a brilliant send-up of "Let's Pretend" on their "Firesign Theatre Radio Hour Hour," but never as obviously as in the Nick Danger pieces.

Customer Review: I had never listened to something by Garrison Keiler before but found that this CD was very entertaining. I found myself laughing and crying and loving my time just sitting and listening. Well worth your money and time.
Customer Review: I saw the program on PBS and really enjoyed it, so I bought the CD. The CD is an audio version of the program. There are several wonderful songs which I still listen to regularly.

Customer Review: Picked this up for a road trip (along with the other release). Great Lovecraft story done well in the style of 30s radio dramatization. Creepy and well told. Lovecraft stories are notoriously hard to put into scripted drama, but these radio styled performances have done it quite well, and not... more info
Customer Review: Abbott and Costello are comedy classics. Their fast-paced dialogue will keep you laughing even if you've heard the routines before. The quality is tinny and sounds scratchy if you're used to the smoothed out quality of digitized recordings, you may not like this CD; however, if you remember... more info
