I knew someone who actually had his records, I mean my great-uncle was close to 90 in the '80s and I saw he had these.

I knew someone who actually had his records, too, and I was told in no uncertain terms that he would
deny having them under oath if I mentioned it to anyone. ;)

I thought he was amusing otherwise, but I'd heard better-executed hayseed humour from the like
of Parker Fennelly---you may remember him as the Pepperidge Farm spokesman, but before that he
played a droll, slow rural type named Titus Moody in the "Allen's Alley" sketches on Fred Allen's
great radio shows of the 1940s---and from Chester Lauck and Norris Goff writing and performing
as radio's Lum & Abner. I've built a collection of about 15,000 old-time radio shows and counting
(I just added the entire surviving run of Big Town to the collection), and the original 15-minute
Lum & Abner shows are some of the prizes in that library.

But RIP, Mr. Nabors.
