The ACME Eagle Hand Soap Radio Hour (17)

Another page from the ACME Catalog -

Before our feature presentation, ACME would like to start the evening with the 1955 Sam the Sheepdog Looney Tunes cartoon, Double Or Mutton:



This is the third short featuring Sam Sheepdog and Ralph Wolf. This is the first episode where it is clearly established that Sam and Ralph are coworkers, as well as the first episode where their names are consistent.


The ACME Eagle Hand Soap Radio Hour is celebrating the anniversary of the first live performance of Declan MacManus as Elvis Costello, backed by The Rumour (without Graham Parker,) at London's Nashville Rooms, in West Kensington, on this date in 1977. Today we are listening to a live recording of a later concert on August 7th of that year, at the same venue.



The recording is from the first week of a month-long, Monday-night residency at the Nashville Rooms, West Kensington. By the final week, the show is threatened with police closure when crowds become too big for the tiny venue.
