George Jessel - Friar's Roast Of George Jessel 04-04-1948

George Jessel	George Albert Jessel	Bronx, New York, USA
Apr 03 1898 – May 23 1981 age 83	Official Site	Wikipedia

April 4th, 1948, possibly the most stellar and uproarious after-dinner roast ever recorded. Honoring Jessel on his 50th birthday are fellow Friars Jack Benny, Eddie Cantor, Danny Kaye, George Burns, Pat O'Brien, Bob Hope, Louis B. Mayer, Samuel Goldwyn, and in rare, live, vocal and comedic form, Al Jolson. Jessel's 'Guest of Honor' acceptance speech is eloquent and hilarious beyond belief, possibly the sublimest public utterance ever by 'America's Toastmaster General.'

The roast took place at The Biltmore Bowl, The Biltmore Hotel in Hollywood. Al Jolson refers to the Chinese as "Chinks" and sings, "My Mother's Eyes" (Jessel must have loved that!), "Easter Bonnet" and "The Nearest Thing To Heaven." George Jessel responds. Jack Benny (toastmaster), Mark Warnow (composer), Eddie Cantor, Danny Kaye, Samuel Goldwyn, George Burns, Pat O'Brien, Louis B. Mayer, Bob Hope, Goodwin Knight (Lieutenant Governor, California), Fletcher Bowron (Mayor of Los Angeles), Al Jolson, George Jessel.
