Show Description
Discussion of Connecticut Pizza Shep plays 1929 Rudy Vallee record - "Outside" Shepherd's theory of why the past was better than the present - you were a kid and wasn't aware of all the troubles of the time. Shep play old commercial for the 1932 Chevrolet
[ Courtesy: David Goldin - 05-26-2024 ] Shepherd appeared the night before at the University of Connecticut. The "thirties" are coming back to Broadway...big! People always had more fun in the past. Shep urges the audience to listen to the commercials carefully, as they will be collected in the future as examples of a simpler time. He's right! What is time? "In the 90's, people will say the 70's were exciting, simple and great." He plays a commercial for the 1932 Chevrolet.
