One of the coolest people I have had the pleasure of meeting was Stan Freeberg. If you don't know who he is, He was the voice of "Pete Puma" in the Buggs Bunny cartoons. What an honor to shake his hand.
Hmmm, these are "abridged" versions. Good, because made by Freberg . . . but if you can, you want to catch the full versions. "Elderly Man River" ended much too abruptly here, for the true Freberg aficionado.
Stan Freberg and "Elderly Man River" is so prescient......Stan was poking fun at Poliitical Correctness fifty years before the PC movement came into being.
My kids grew up listening to the album "The United States of America". A comical satire at the history of USA. Love his humor.
Even Mr Tweedly is sad, on your passing Stan.
RIP Stan.

He was many, many years ahead of his time, and he influenced my thinking since the mid-50s.
