"Scrooge and the Stars" (1963) - Rich Little - Part 1



"Scrooge and the Stars" (1963)
Capitol Records
Performer: Rich Little
Scrooge: "Jack Benny"

Here we have another novelty record from the early 1960s, but this one's a full-length album adaptation of "A Christmas Carol," as presented by famous impressionist Rich Little in 1963!

Rich Little is, of course, extremely famous, probably the most famous impressionist ever. And with good reason, as his talent is remarkable. His voices are excellent, but he was also always really good at picking up on the impressionee's mannerisms.

These talents serve him well here, as he imperonates "22 well known personalities in a modern version of 'A Christmas Carol'"

So, give a listen:
