Got his first album in '62. Still have it!
which includes 'Genuine copy of a fake Dior'..., My Zelda, and so much more ❤️... Fond memories. May he Rest in Peace.
First, I heard him in "The King of Queens", when Arthur dance to "Hello Muddah, hello Fadduh". Since this time, I love his music an bought all his original vinyl-record. Greatings from Bavaria, Germany
I pursued stage and entertainment as an adult, primarily inspired by Allan Sherman and Bill Cosby. Both made me realize how clever and creative one could be with comedy. This is a lovely short retrospective of a unique, quirky man. Thank you!
BOTH were GREAT COMEDIC TALENTS!
@@johnmaki3046 AND ONE was A RAPIST
@@mythgreatbritain5634 Cosby WAS a GREAT COMEDIAN! Allan Sherman WAS ALSO! IF you READ about either, NEITHER was "awesome perfect"! This is DAMNED TRUE of ALL HUMAN BEINGS!
We had his albums growing up. I would go to school singing his songs. The kids thought I was weird but the teachers would laugh. I love his humor.
Our boy Al needs a comeback. His brand of humor fits right in with gen-z’s.
He was a very funny and talented man. I love his songs. One is Old King Louie 😂💖. The other one is the twelve days of Christmas. He died too young at 48. Died the day before his 49th Birthday. At least his songs live forever.
Him and Vince Guaraldi seem to have quite a lot in common.
Both were overnight sensations.
Both are primary remembered for one song
Both won Grammys
Both had a divorce
Both died while/after performing
0:13-0:23 this is the greatest 10 seconds in any biography ever.
350 pound race car driver?
Rest In Peace, a comedic god.
Is this AI narration? No inflection and mispronounced words
A GREAT TALENT! Sadly, now forgotten!
I've had his first 2 albums since the late 60's. Neither were new when I got them, but somehow, I can't remember how or where I got them from. I was in high school when he died. This is the first time I've heard about him dying.
4:01 I believe that's "borscht belt", not "boar-s*** belt)
He wrote a second book. It was published by Playboy Press under the title The Rape of the A*P*E* (***American Puritan Ethic). It is brilliant and highly insightful.
A hugely funny book
He also wrote a musical Fig Leaves are Falling. It didn't do to well.
That is some of the most lifeless narration I have ever heard.
Because it's being read DIRECTLY from Wikipedia!!!!
O-be-city
Probably a robot
I agree. Deathly dull.
@@EPA18 lol. But they did spend 15 minutes compiling pictures so there was some effort.
I LOVED ALLEN SHERMAN!!! SO CLEVER AND INVENTIVE.
Nice job! Keep it up!
Great video... a word-for-word readout of his Wikipedia page...
My parents loved this guy, had all his albums, and they'd never even been to the "Boar Shit Belt".
He was a scream on two episodes of "What's My Line?" (1964 & '65)
Narration is from Wikipedia article to the word
That “Boar Shit” belt sounds like a messy place to visit. I’m amazed so many people enjoyed it. 🙄
He also wrote, "The Rape of the Ape: American Protestant Ethic "
Hello muddah, was so popular that it was sung everywhere when it came out. Very funny song!
It's funny - I know I'm going to be judged - but I sing it to my dogs and invent perverse lyrics (just Like Allan) 😎. But they probably don't appreciate my effort. Such a great tune. I do wonder why it's not popular.
@@Fomites Thanks for your response! I think if it got play time to the present generation, it would catch on again. Not enough humor in our uptight culture today. People would rather worship TS than have a good belly laugh.
A zombie recites the wikipedia listing...very poorly
Probably a robot
This is "A.I." AT ITS' WORST!
So you read the Wikipedia content? Allan would be pissed.
It's sad that they really didn't have any real way to treat diabetes back then. We could have had more great works from him.
His names Serling not Sterling
"A Gift of Laughter" is not just funny (e.g., the four psychiatrists, Drs. A, B, C, and D). It tells some of the heartaches of his life (e.g., searching for his father, and then finding him).
Taken verbatim from Wikipedia. Apart from Rod Sterling of course.
I-L-L-I-N-I (Daily Illini) is pronounced uh-LIE-nye
Good grief lady! No fact-checking .
any bio books on him? should make a movie
Theres two. My Zelda and My son the Author.
Hi there! I’m a new subscriber. Can you please do a vid on character actor Burr DeBenning? He wasn’t super famous but he he had a long career and died around 2003ish and I can’t find any info on him.... pretty please? Thnx
IF they can get the computer "fired up"!
1:15 You were off by ten years. "I've Got a Secret" ran until **1967**. By that time however, Alan was long gone from that show.
I didn't realized he died in 1973 .
Sadly, at age 48!
All his albums were at the thrift store a while back ~ so why not? I've come to appreciate what I originally interpreted as "irritating" informative bio, but "ROD STERLING"?
A.I.(at its' best!)
Rod Sterling? They did it again.
The research department is top notch, eh?
Not even funny
Rod SERLING is SPINNING IN HIS GRAVE over this OBVIOUS A.I. FAILURE!
Very sad, funny guy.
Do the life and sad ending of jack barry
The computer mentions the "Borshit Belt". 🤭
I want to see movie about Allan Sherman
And I want Paul Giamatti to play him 😁
You should make it. I'd love to watch it.
Do the life and sad ending of jessica savitch
IF the computer can "spit" it out! This "stuff" IS SICKENING!
Allan Sherman died too young! My Mother died the following year! I had several of his records (LP) and 1 45rpm. of “Crazy Downtown”one 45rpm of Crazy Downtown. I also had Hello Muddah,hello father! I found all of them to be quite hilarious! May he RI.P.😅
He Produced Shamed Bill Cosby's "Is A Very Funny Fellow..RIGHT!"for Warner Bros.Records.
No matter what Bill Cosby was OFF-STAGE; HE WAS A TRULY GREAT COMEDIAN!
I'd really like a good movie made about him. Jack Black I'm thinking would be great in the role. Or if they could make Danny Devito look younger I'd like him in the role
Fantastic 😍💋 💝💖♥️❤️
Pfft! EVERYONE, it seems had a “SAD ENDING”? How can that be? What a stupid thing to say about people you don’t know!
I need boyfriend 💋💋💋💋💋💞💞💞💞
Need lovely 😍💋 💝💖❤️
