Published 1 month, 4 weeks ago
Description
The Abbott And Costello Show presents “Sam Shovel - the Murder at the Radio Quiz Show,” originally broadcast December 30, 1948. In this New Year’s Eve edition, Bud Abbott and Lou Costello open with holiday jokes before Costello takes on the role of private eye Sam Shovel.
When Lt. Abbott invites Sam to a New Year’s Eve party, the detective’s casebook gives way to fast wordplay, eccentric visitors, and comic party complications. George Fenneman announces, with music by Matty Malneck and his musicians and a vocal number from Hal Winters.
The Abbott And Costello Show presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
