The act was originated by Charles Sellers (1888–1934), who hired actor John Swor as his partner. "Swor & Mack" enjoyed moderate success until Swor left the act. He was replaced by George Moran. The team of Moran and Mack caught on and became major recording stars. "The Two Black Crows" became a weekly radio show in 1928. Moran and Mack also guest-starred on Fred Waring's radio show in 1933. Moran and Mack's gags were mostly corny and the characters were stereotypical. 2 different roles were played by Moran and Mack in their act. One practical but naive (Moran) and the other the other seemingly slow and lazy (Mack) yet quick with a quip and a certain skewed logic. The relationship depicted, plus their laconic delivery, made them one of the most successful of comedy teams. At the height of their popularity, after completing their first talking feature film, Moran had a salary dispute with Mack and sued him in 1930. A judge ruled that Mack legally owned the act and could pay whatever salary he wanted. Moran quit. Charles Mack died in an automobile accident on January 11, 1934. George Moran died on August 1, 1949. The CD includes their entire known recorded output.
