Free Music Review: Welcome back Ernestine !
Hit: 5 Stars
It's been a long time since I chortled away listening to Miss Lily Tomlin doing her character Ernestine "Dimes are my bread and butter" the saviour of the Telephone Company.
The highlight of the album would have to be listening to the Queen of the Telephone Company interrupting the Queen Bee of Hollywood Miss Joan Crawford, (Vice President of the Pepsi Cola Company) who is speaking long distance to someone in Paris.
Ernestine has lost her dime in a Pepsi Cola machine and she wants it back - pronto.
One can imagine a startled Crawford asking "Where's Paris ?" as we hear the response from Ernestine "still in France,I think," then snorts.
Bowls me over every time.
It's wonderful to have Ernestine on CD thirty years after vinyl, and each of my work mates were presented with a copy from moi, to celebrate having Ernestine and Vito back in our lives.
(We are, I might add,all receptionist /telephonists ourselves).
Not being American, I did have to remind a few who Mrs Mitchell was - we certainly remember Watergate - Martha the Mouth was reknown back then.
The discussion between Ernestine and the Bordello Madame is hilarious -"nobody has more familar equipment than yours?" - and the rare opportunity to hear Ernestine grovelling "Your Eminence, your Magnificence", when believing she is talking to the Pope (it was a different kind of Godfather).
From standup comedy to Laugh In, hit movies (Nine to Five being one) and more recently,the immortal West Wing, Lily Tomlin has come a long way baby - but I'll always love Ernestine.

The chart-topping debut album from quite possibly the greatest female standup comic of all time! Lily was fresh from her Laugh-In success when Polydor released this record in 1971, and rest assured her beloved character Ernestine ('One ringy-dingy...two rMiscellaneous Music CDs
