Okay, the above is a real generation gap divide thing. I mean, what Gen Z'er remembers Redd Foxx, let alone the entire genre of party LPs? 😎
Coming tomorrow -- a tribute to the great Rusty Warren (I keed, I keed!!!) 😎😎

Well, Dr Demento did announce his retirement a week ago, so why not?
The Redd Fox, Mom's Mabley Party Records were the "dirty" legends of their day

I think there's now a law or bylaw that states that all record store cheap album bins must have at least one Rusty Warren LP :-)
I certainly hope so. 😎
knockers up!
In real life, Aunt Fritzi was Betty Page.
Is that for real? If so, I'll be darned.....
Nah, just pulling the collective leg. Gotta agree that the blue party record is a lost art.
Not likely to be remembered. The half-life of celebrity status gets shorter and shorter. A really good debate or argument can center on who will be remembered in 100 years, given that in 100 years no one may remember anything. From the twentieth century I give you Sinatra, Marilyn Monroe, Groucho, Che Guevara, James Dean, The Beatles, and FDR. A lot has to do with how images are used for marketing purposes.
Mark, you are a perceptive man.
