Stan Freberg Presents the United States of America
What was that? French horns! So begins a one of the running gags in Stan Freberg's sendup of the history of the United States of America(The Early Years). What? "French horns" didn't make you laugh? Well, obviously you've never heard the record. And if you didn't, you don't know why the Eagle is our national bird instead of the turkey, what it cost George Washington to rent the boats he used to cross the Delaware, why Manhattan was only $24, why we have no fleurs de lys on the American Flag, or even why Columbus used three boats* to come to America, and why the banks were closed when he arrived.** And it's a musical, besides. You'll be humming "Everybody Wants to be an Art Director" after your first hearing. This is a classic comedy album. In my opinion it's the best of Freberg, which is saying something considering that he did St. George and the Dragonet AND Grey Flannel Hat Full of Madison Avenue Werewolves. What? You don't know them either? I'm jealous - I know this stuff by heart and you still have a voyage of discovery ahead of you! Land ho! What was that? French horns! No, it was the lookout - he's sighted land! Quick, hand me the glass... Not that glass, the other one. *Isabella got a better deal at the fleet rate. **Columbus day.Read full review

Old Favorite with Overtones of Today
I first heard this piece back in the 1960s and have been a fan ever since. It's more than political or social humor, it's a delightful look back at the days when we could laugh at ourselves and not be overly criticized for it. Freberg was a genius to say the least and this along with some of his other contributions to his era are without equal. The first one is far superior to the second but both are well worth listening to and sharing.

A CLASSIC AMERICAN RADIO SATIRE CD SET
STAN FREBERG PRESENTS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, VOLUMES ONE AND TWO is an incisive and very witty satire on pre-World War II American history with a colorful voice cast and more than a couple barbs directed at cherished national values. Strongly recommended to anyone who enjoys the humor of Bob & Ray or Flanders & Swann.

Stan Freberg Comedy
Freberg missed his time by about 15 years. He aired a radio program after comedy had shifted to TV. His parady is the best and is still funny and is well thought out and produced. First Class!
