I'll bet he wanted to be a singer, but found out he didn't have a pleasant singing voice so he tried talking. What a story. Only in America.

Wonderful- sentimental, corny by today's standards (what are they?) but touching and heart felt. No cone could jerk a tear like Ted. Love it. I have an 8X10 of Ted, with the top hat, inscribed to my Dad, Lawrence, who was a great fan. Miss you Dad- think of you every day. Thanks for giving me your love of all the great bands. Thanks for everything. Love, Bill. Thanks for posting this. Nicely done.
