I will cut-n-paste what you said and will give you the reply. It will be my
last in doing this.:-)

Here it is Gary. Remember, this is from Ed. I knew he'd have the answer. If you
talk about "Amos-n-Andy" you better know what you're talking about, because I
know he does. ;-)
***********************************************

OK , here's your ammunition: HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT!
Radio Spirits has Amos n Andy broadcasts that were on CBS in the 40's and are a
HALF-HOUR LONG! Some of them feature guest movie actors, etc. with a live
orchestra and live audience applauding and laughing in chorus.
I have some of those programs in my own collection.
However, they were NOT THE FIRST FIFTEEN-MINUTE versions of A&A, which were
NEVER RECORDED!
This guy's just a "CRANK"! He just wants to pick apart everything I'm doing,
because he's a typical politically-correct LIBERAL!!!
He's an example of why Amos n Andy is not being broadcast anywhere on any radio
stations. It's precisely this attitude which has poisoned the atmosphere for
Amos n Andy.
Yet it's OK for the low-lives who dominate television and radio and CD's these
days to use foul language, use sexual references, swear and take the name of
our Lord our God in vain and even to kill each other (as in "Ice Tea killing
his rap rival recently out of jealousy)...........NONE of which Amos n Andy are
guilty of!
Amos n Andy are God-fearing people. They never use foul language, nor do they
take the name of the Lord in vain. They don't use drugs or alcohol. They never
refer to sex; they only fall in love with a woman, and Amos is faithful to Ruby
Taylor, even though Andy can't get his act together, but that's part of the
comedy in the ongoing story.
This guy's a "crank"!
And as far as copyrights are concerned, these programs I'm doing have been
ruled IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN, so once again, this guy's FULL of it!
