Summary:

The Stan Freberg Display ran on CBS radio for only fifteen episodes in 1957. It starred comedian Stan Freberg and featured his stock business of performers: Daws Butler, June Foray, and Peter Leeds. It also featured singing superstar Peggy Taylor, the vocal stylings of The Jud Conlon Rythmnaires, as well as the musical path of Billy Might. Despite its brief run, the present developed working gags and stock jokes that are still kept in mind today, including Freberg’s ambivalence toward Madison Avenue towards the about The Stan Freberg Show: THE ENTIRE Collection overwhelmingly well-known interviews with a sneaker-wearing Abominable Snowman. Much of the display took fatal satiric aim in the advertising business, making it problematic for CBS to find a sponsor. By week thirteen it had been apparent a sponsor wouldn’t normally be signing on, so CBS cancelled the display after just fifteen episodes.

The Stan Freberg Present was the last American network radio show to devote itself purely to comedy. This collection features all fifteen shows of The Stan Freberg Show plus a bonus bout of The CBS Radio Workshop from 1956 starring Stan Freberg and his stock business, including Alan Reed (the voice of Fred Flintstone). Upon this thirty-minute present, Stan points out the art of satire to a skeptical censor and illustrates the explanation with his own recordings. The collection is crucial for Freberg lovers!
