Among my mom’s favorites! And although _The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour_ aired a few years before I was born, she owned many of their l.p.’s, so growing up in the 1970s I was able to laugh along to those on our family’s little record-player. And people were still talking about and referencing the Smothers Brothers for much of my childhood, plus my grandmother and my great-aunt loved them too … so the Smothers Brothers’ influence spans generations! What a force for good they are. For as long as is needed, may they continue to inspire.
