The comedy of errors
The Best of Kermit Shafer “For Those Who Have Everything” on Jubilee Records. Gatefold. With a nice illustration of Alfred E. Neuman on the cover. From the guy who gave us all those “Pardon My Blooper” records.
Shafer was the first to transform other people’s flustered speaking, slips of the tongue, and inadvertent solecisms from television and radio broadcasts into gold. In his hands, a blooper wasn’t just a mistake. It was a noteworthy event, a slice of everyday media life, otherwise evanescent, that he shined up for display. There was the Vick’s 44 Cough Syrup commercial that guaranteed “You’ll never get any better!” Or as the stumbling newscaster said, “Also keeping an eye on the Woodstock Rock Festival was New York’s governor Rockin Nelsenfeller.” — Fritinancy on the meaning of word “blooper”
