Review of Sly Crooner Episode #8 The Fly
As a writer and performer, Geoffrey Tozer works a hep-highwire from which many have fallen. But Mr. Tozzer stays effortlessly and breathtakingly on the wire mixing a potent martini that evokes Jean Shepherd and Ken Nordine, but plays a riff all his own.
The episodes of "Sly Crooner" pass my long standing test of quality: "Do I want this program coming out of my dashboard on a long night drive across the desert?" Absolutely.
Program directors, this show can own the overnight for you.
