Comedy Goes West

By: Bill Morrow, Ed Beloin

Narrated by: Bing Crosby, Roy Rogers, Red Skelton, Bob Hope, Fred Allen, Jack Benny, Dennis Day

Yee haw! It's a heap o' hilarious as radio's top comedians buckle on the spurs, grab the 10-gallon Stetsons, and slap leather on the purple sage! Straight-shootin' cowpokes, ornery varmints, and mangy owlhoots dot the trail as we round up a barrel of Western laughs!

Bing Crosby hosts The Lone Ranger, Roy Rogers visits with Bergen & McCarthy, and Red Skelton heads to Dead Eye's dude ranch. Come kick up your heels with Bob Hope, "Buck Benny," Fred Allen, Fibber McGee and Molly, and more!
