Feel Good Friday Video: Comedian Bill “Jose Jimenez” Dana (VIDEO)
Does anybody ever buy comedy CDs anymore. Or records????
When I was a kid I distinctly remember my parents loved to buy comedy record albums in the early 1960s. I remember the Smothers Brothers, Bob Newhart, Shelley Berman, Bill Cosby and others in the stack. And also, some albums by a funny guy named Bill Dana. His 'character' was the hapless "My name...Jose Jimenez" and he was always getting into tight spots. He was a funny guy who was frequently seen on the variety shows of the day. He also (later) had a recurring role as one of Sophia's long lost Italian relatives on "The Golden Girls."
Does anybody remember this comedian? He will be celebrating his 90th birthday this year. Give a look:
