Mae West discovered Cary Grant and made him her leading man. Who else could coin the phrase tall, dark, and handsome? She had a good time but at least she pulled the curtains when no one else in Hollywood did.

The Best of The ForemenThe Best of The Foremen
Buy used from: $14.38
THE FOREMEN are modern, liberal "folksingers" for want of a better term, though their music is in no way "folksy". The first song of theirs I ever heard was "My Conservative Girfriend" Other songs included a melody reminiscent of Paul Simon's "Bridge Over Troubled Water," which is absolutely merciless in its satire...wait! That's what they are. They're political & social satirists!
