I'd have loved this to find just Brother Theodore Vs. MERV... but Merv plus JERRY LEWIS!

Wow!

I can't help but remember Letterman's notion that 'this is all just "BIG TIME WRESTLING."

And we though THEODORES' run on Letterman was the first!!!


NOTHING is new!

TONY RANDALL Marathon

Here's a rarity! "Stumbling (All Around)" by TONY RANDALL.

They used to play this on THE GHOUL (Cleveland/Parma cable TV in the early 70s.)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nebuOXlpr1Q

From the 1967 Mercury LP "Vo Vo De Oh Doe"

Supposedly, he later sang this on THE ODD COUPLE.

Not quite as good, but here's his "Boo Hoo"
