What to expect
The autobiography of master impressionist Joe Alaskey takes listeners on a fun-filled behind-the-scenes look at Hollywood and how he became Mel Blanc’s replacement as the voices of Daffy Duck, Bugs Bunny, and many of the Warner Bros. cartoon characters.
Joe Bevilacqua performs as Alaskey and even demonstrates some of the voices along the way, including a sketch that pits Daffy Duck against Columbo, and Archie and Edith Bunker as Romeo and Juliet. Bevilacqua was trained with Mel Blanc and Daws Butler (Yogi Bear).
Critics Review
-
“Everyone who knows voices knows how good Joe Alaskey is at them. The guy has an uncanny ear, an amazing ability to sound like anyone or anything, and the comic timing of a master comedian. You’d think that would be enough for one human being but no. Turns out, he also writes (and, for God’s sake, even illustrates!) a warm, funny autobiography that’s as much about the greats he’s met and/or revered as it is about him. Anyone interested in cartoons or voices or just show biz success stories will have, like I did, a hard time putting it down.”
