Flywheel, Shyster and Flywheel (Radio Collection)

£4.00

The Marx brothers were not just masters of madcap film comedy, they took their outrageously funny talent to radio too. These rediscovered NBC scripts, were lost for more than fifthy years. Flywheel, Shyster and Flywheel is a celebration of their timeless wit and wisdom by Marx Brothers sound alikes Michael Roberts and Frank Lazarus. Michael Plays Groucho playing Waldorf T Flywheel, a fast-talking, money-grabbing rogue attorney. Frank Plays Chico playing Emmanuel Ravelli, Flywheel's numbskill sidekick.

Tony Hancock's premature death, in 1968 at the age of 44, deprived the entertainment world of perhaps the greatest post-war comedian to have emerged from this country. It makes his 80 hours of material originally broadcast by the BBC on radio and television between 1954 and 1961 seem all the more priceless and rare.

Supported by Galton and Simpson's marvellous scripts which so astutely complemented Hancock's talent, and admirably in the studio Kenneth Williams, Sid James, Hattie Jacques, Bill Kerr and others, the work of Tony Hancock - here representeed by four examples - lives on.
