Golden Throats - Carroll O'Connor / Jean Stapleton

[zazozung]

How young and GAY????????

Archie met Edith at the Puritan Made Ice Cream Parlor. Edith was there with Cousin Maude (Muuuaaadddeeee) and eating a "steamboat." Archie walked over and crushed the steamboat while leaning on the table.

Carroll O'Connor had a wonderful singing voice.

The talent of these two was off the charts. I still watch reruns just to marvel at their tremendous talent. I remember watching the first shows and almost falling out of my chair with laughter. The writers and actors were the best in television.

@victoriabenn Re: "I remember watching the first shows and almost falling out of my chair with laughter."

When you watch those same shows today and find yourself still falling out of your chair with laughter, that's when you know you're watching a classic.

Re: "The writers and actors were the best in television."

No argument there.

Does this album have their extended version of Those were the days? I remeber it being played on the radio.

[chompo7]

@marsmoke no the theme song is not on this album.i looked for YEARS to find that extended version that was played on am radio when i was a kid.i finally found it last year.

it was only released on a 45 on atlantic records.

[nohaylamujer]

i bought this album when it came out!!! edith singing "mr. wonderful" is something to hear to believe... i wish there were a cd transfer of it.

How many folks out there bought the 6 season dvd collection ? I think I saw season 7 sold by itself.I know in my heart that All in the Family could of lasted more seasons if Mike and Gloria didn't move to California,and Archie got too mellow.The charactors changed and the shows became stupid.Where it really went down hill was when Martin Balsom,Ann Meara,the Gay waiter, and others came on,after Edith died.The show was a boat with a huge hole in the hull and it was sinking fast.What a shame ! RIP

[yeababy1980]

I really like this song...and its more sentimental since Archie is no longer with us.

[CadillacL]

WOW! I didn't know this excisted. Is this a complete album of the cast? How awesome to hear Carroll O'Conner & Jean Stapleton in character.

[tsntana]

Man those were the days.

[Katzi]

That was SO nice! Thanks for posting it .

[MrOldtimeCountry]

What happened to talent like this? These folks are from a day when television was worth watching, and music had class and taste. Those were the days indeed.

[vinnyhoags]
