Babel Fish: The Oddest Thing in the Universe

A great slice from a superb BBC Television series based on
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, by Douglas Adams.
First the novel, then the radio play, followed by the TV
broadcast, ending with the movie much later.
All were good, some better than others, but much to be
enjoyed by all.
This explains the translation device used by galactic travellers
to navigate the universe.
Typical British acting and intellect, lots of entertainment here…

The Drinking Man’s Diet

This is a rare look at one of the best comedians to ever ply his trade.
A lot of folks in this day and age have never heard his name, and that
is a crying shame.
Allan Sherman did a lot in a short amount of time, most of his works
were done in the middle of the 1960’s.
He was an author, stand-up comedian, singer, and all around nice guy.
This piece shows a real talent for performing, I just played it on the show…

The Uptown Poker Club

The late, great Jerry Reed was a real talent.
His skill set was being a superb, sought after session
guitarist, a pretty decent actor, and a darned good
all around good guy that everyone liked and appreciated.
This is from a recording he came out with back in the day
that showed his sense of humor, and a fair singing ability.
Careful, he carries a razor…
