Interesting read. I didn't know what "Borscht Belt" was, so I looked it up on Wikipedia:
"Borscht Belt is a colloquial term for the mostly defunct summer resorts of the Catskill Mountains in parts of Sullivan, Orange, and Ulster Counties in upstate New York that were a popular vacation spot for New York City Jews from the 1920s through the 1960s." |

A message from Joel Samberg:
Benny Bell was one of the funniest, wackiest, hardest-working and most resilient entertainers ever to come out of vaudeville and the Borscht Belt. His classic novelty songs include "Shaving Cream," "Take a Ship for Yourself," "Everybody Wants My Fanny," "Pincus the Peddler," "Ikey & Mikey," "Sweet Violets," "Home Again (Without Pants)" and dozens of others.
We have a few rare 45 rpm pressings of "Home Again (Without Pants)" that are being bundled with a second Benny Bell single at extremely low prices. When you consider that these records can be viewed as collector's items from a very special time from a very special entertainer, you'll want to get in on the good deal. Not many copies of "Home Again (Without Pants)," which was one of Benny Bell's craziest songs, were manufactured. We have most of the remaining copies. Now you can have one--along with a second 45 for no additional charge.
Whether you have a record player to play them on or not, these two Benny Bell singles should be in your collection if you're a lover of classic novelty songs!
