Red Blanchard, W6AG passed away at age 91 in Escondido, CA on 6/16/2011. "Now leaving the air forever!" Google "Red Blanchard" for his life and interests. --CB
Thanks for sharing all that information about Nervous Norvus. "Transfusion" got a fair amount of radio play and was a big novelty hit in NY when I was growing up. "Pass the juice to me Bruce." I loved it.
Hi, Red, Thanks for the information on Nervous Norvus and his wild recordings - with your outstanding ape calls - absolutely made Ape Call the hit that it was. I listened to your show from SF, and actually went to one of your shows in about 1954 with some friends, one of whom was interviewed by you on the air; he was wearing a gorilla mask which helped. I never missed an episode of "The Flat Man" and his nickel-plated sword cane, cruising the Rue de la Howard St.

I'm so glad Red was able to make this recording as a final tribute to Nervous Norvus, and of course, to himself as well.
