Query: Jerry is the real deal.

I love listening to this cd. I became a fan of Jerry Clower when I was about 9 years old. This album had just come out and I received it on cassette for Christmas that year (1974). I listened over and over and thought Jerry Clower was the funniest man I'd ever heard. Every one of the 16 stories on this cd is terrific, but I especially like "Claude and the Game Warden." Through the years I have bought this same album over and over again to replace lost or worn out ones, and today I'm buying multiple cd's to give away. I came to know Jerry many years later, not too long before his death, and he was the same in person as he was on cd. He loved to make people laugh, and he really treated other people well. He was the real deal. And this is a great cd!
