I agree Nazarro was engaged on Benny's show for various double talking bits from late 1937...but the info in Laura's book is incorrect for shows dated 2-9-36, 11-1-36, 1-17-37, 4-25-37 and 4-17-38 (the second, third and fourth dates are actually Cliff Arquette...that misinformation arose from the single name "Cliff" being on the scripts in the Benny UCLA collection). Nazarro recorded several songs in the late 20s doing his Jolson imitation which can be heard in the WB cartoon SEPTEMBER IN THE RAIN....Clampett said Nazarro was also used in several cartoons as a crooner, and you can hear his fine Cantor as early as TOYTOWN HALL. I have read that Nazarro developed a bad stomach illness in the mid-40s and that it confined him to a sanatorium for the last 15 years of his life. Friz Freleng gave him a quick job in 1947, doing Crosby in CURTAIN RAZOR released in 1949. (Keith Scott)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
