JONATHAN WINTERS
The Wonderful World Of Jonathan Winters
Jonathan Winters is a wildly improvisational comic with skits & routines
that go from childlike prankishness to satire farce, and from kooky sound
effects to straight-faced moralizing, often all within the same bit. His
ground breaking vision & style paved the way for everyone from Andy Kaufman
& Jim Carey to Robin Williams. This is his 1960 debut LP, The Wonderful
World of Jonathan Winters, a collection of zany skits featuring his funniest
characters: Elwood P. Suggins; Barley Hopps; Uncle Willard; Maude Frickert
and others. Skits are: The Flying Saucer; Western; Football Game; Airline
Pilots; Used Pet Shop; Hip Robin Hood; Super Service Station; and Marine
Corps. This is an original 1960 pressing on VERVE RECORDS (15009), with
the blue & silver label. There is some minor color rubbing to the jacket,
but all the seams are intact, and it appears generally in overall Excellent
condition. The record labels & playing surfaces appear in overall Very Good
condition!
