BTW, you almost (not quite) got me with that Eddie "Rochester" Anderson -> Norton Buffalo transition. :rsly:

Been there... done that.

I knew it. Okay, I was going for "duck", "helmet", and "bunker"... ?

Just to add to what Lon said, here is just a sampling of titles that have come out on CD (this is just a list of material recorded between '58 and '63, but I would urge you to also look beyond 1963, as there was much more great music made by these and other artists throughout the 1960's)...

Oh, BTW, as long as I'm here... I'm surprised I didn't have to give an explanation for the "Duck Baker -> Helmut Koll -> Larry Bunker" post (I'm not even sure I got it, and I wrote it!).

Thank you. B-) Oh... I should use a smiley with a hat...

Considering the timing of this, I think he's responding to the popularity of the "Name Three People..." thread.

I'd say it's totally kosher (not that anybody put ME in charge) Moose, one more like that and you're OUT, pal. (good thing I don't have to admit how many times I've used Google so far...)

I haven't seen a MB film in ages. When I was a kid (in the 60's), it seemed like there was always one of their films on tv. In fact, I remember times when I could choose between different films on different channels! This accessability/availability must have conditioned me to think it would always be that way, because I never taped one of their films, nor has it ever occurred to me to buy a VHS or DVD. Well, now it occurs to me that I haven't seen any of their films airing on tv (including our current cable lineup) for a very long time. If I buy a box set, that would not only be expensive, but think of the sales taxes. "Hey, I gotta an uncle who lives in taxes" ?! No no, I'm talking about money- DOLLARS. "Say, thatsa where my uncle lives- Dollars Taxes!" Now, that kind of testimony we can eliminate. "Atsa fine... I'll take some" You'll take what? "Eliminate. A nice cold glass eliminate"
