The Very Best of Bob and Ray: Legends of Comedy
- Used Book in Good Condition
Before Bob & Ray, comedians told jokes. After Bob & Ray, they told stories. When they first got together in 1946 on WHDH-AM Boston, no one guessed that their subtle, intelligent, deadpan brand of humor would revolutionize the comedic landscape.

With a gift for an improvisation and a keen understanding of the absurd, Bob Elliott and Ray Goulding created a universe of wonderful characters and rewrote the rules for whatâ€™s funny. Consider any important comedy star sinceâ€”Bob Newhart, Garrison Keillor, Woody Allen, Johnny Carson, George Carlin, Jay Leno, David Letterman, Jerry Seinfeldâ€”and you can hear the debt to Bob & Ray.

This collection honors the two and only with selections from their early years (1950s, â€™60s, and â€™70s) and public radio years (â€™80s), their 1984 Carnegie Hall performances, and three previously unreleased archival recordings.
