"Bob & Ray invented, dreamed up the lines for, and then played, mainly on radio and television, a surrealistic Dickensian repertory company, which chastens the fools of the world with hyperbole, slapstick, parody, verbal nonsense, non sequitur, and sheer wit, all of it clean, subtle and gentle... Bob & Ray's humor turns on their faultless timing and on their infinite sense of the ridiculous. It is also framed by that special sly, dry, wasteless vision of life perfected during the last couple of centuries by middle-class New Englanders..." -- Whitney Balliett, writing in The New Yorker. Bob [Elliott] & Ray [Goulding], the legendary American humorists, were loved by fans and by fellow humorists, comedians and broadcasters. Every humorist and comedian from 1946 to the present admired and copied Bob & Ray?s material and style. Johnny Carson, David Letterman, Jay Leno, George Carlin, and Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. are fans. Bob & Ray's 40-year career began 60 years ago, in 1946 at WHDH, Boston. Bob was a disc jockey, and Ray a newscaster. When the Red Sox games were delayed on account of rain, they began to amuse each other to fill the time. Soon they had a daily show of their own, "Matinee with Bob & Ray," an improvised, madcap exercise in controlled chaos. Over their long career, they created more than a hundred characters, all played by Bob or Ray. Wally Ballou, the hapless journalist, Mary McGoon, whose recipe for frozen ginger ale salad, prefigures Martha Stewart; Biff Burns in the sports room, Webly Webster, Barry Campbell, a third rate actor with an ego the size of the universe, Mary Backstayge, Noble Wife whose pals travel the world in search of goofy adventure. Their humor is subtle, dry, intelligent and clean. Bob & Ray have a keen ear for language, how it is used and misused by the con artists, hucksters and hustlers who populate radio, television and cable. Bob & Ray routines are timeless and universal. They satirize the same lugubrious soap operas, manic game shows, self-important interviewers, clueless reporters, and semifraudulent commercials, that are still with us today. Hosted by Bob Elliot and Ray Goulding, this series showcases their most beloved characters and sketches.

"Bob & Ray invented, dreamed up the lines for, and then played, mainly on radio and television, a surrealistic Dickensian repertory company, which chastens the fools of the world with hyperbole, slapstick, parody, verbal nonsense, non sequitur, and sheer wit, all of it clean, subtle and gentle... Bob & Ray's humor turns on their faultless timing and on their infinite sense of the ridiculous. It is also framed by that special sly, dry, wasteless vision of life perfected during the last couple of centuries by middle-class New Englanders..." -- Whitney Balliett, writing in The New Yorker. Bob [Elliott] & Ray [Goulding], the legendary American humorists, were loved by fans and by fellow humorists, comedians and broadcasters. Every humorist and comedian from 1946 to the present admired and copied Bob & Ray?s material and style. Johnny Carson, David Letterman, Jay Leno, George Carlin, and Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. are fans. Bob & Ray's 40-year career began 60 years ago, in 1946 at WHDH, Boston. Bob was a disc jockey, and Ray a newscaster. When the Red Sox games were delayed on account of rain, they began to amuse each other to fill the time. Soon they had a daily show of their own, "Matinee with Bob & Ray," an improvised, madcap exercise in controlled chaos. Over their long career, they created more than a hundred characters, all played by Bob or Ray. Wally Ballou, the hapless journalist, Mary McGoon, whose recipe for frozen ginger ale salad, prefigures Martha Stewart; Biff Burns in the sports room, Webly Webster, Barry Campbell, a third rate actor with an ego the size of the universe, Mary Backstayge, Noble Wife whose pals travel the world in search of goofy adventure. Their humor is subtle, dry, intelligent and clean. Bob & Ray have a keen ear for language, how it is used and misused by the con artists, hucksters and hustlers who populate radio, television and cable. Bob & Ray routines are timeless and universal. They satirize the same lugubrious soap operas, manic game shows, self-important interviewers, clueless reporters, and semifraudulent commercials, that are still with us today. Hosted by Bob Elliot and Ray Goulding, this series showcases their most beloved characters and sketches

Remembering, and other Early Electronic Pieces - Don Voegeli
From Wisconsin Public Radio | Part of the The Works of Don Voegeli series | 01:13:46
As part of our efforts to preserve the music of Don Voegeli, we bring you this sampling of some of the many electronic music compositions he created from 1972 until 1980. Most of these pieces are from 1972 - 73, soon after the “birth” of electronic music using commercial synthesizers. These pieces were distributed to public radio and television stations on records (LPs). They were for use as themes, backgrounds or extended musical interludes, with the advantage that stations did not have to pay expensive copyright fees, as was necessary with commercial music. Don also wrote specific program themes and produced hundreds of buttons and bridges used by stations and by National Public Radio for All Things Considered , Options and Voices in The Wind . Many of these pieces are on the companion CDs Beautiful and Lovely and Buttons and Bridges , which are available at the UW-Madison Archives. Various tape recordings of Don’s music are gone and lost forever, so we are limited in what we can preserve and present. Don created these electronic pieces using early Putney® and Moog® synthesizers that required him to record every note separately on its own track as you could not simultaneously record two notes or a chord. Thus, creating these pieces required painstaking work, layering the notes together on a multi-track tape machine. This music is still cleared for use by and for public, non-commercial radio, TV and media and is digitized here for the first time. – Jim Voegeli, 2017
