In Australia! The postage cost more than the record.

A bargain, then.

I did buy Marty Feldman's I Feel a Song Coming Off which was converted to CD. You do forget that a lot of these comedians created songs. (Of course Marty was famous for writing Rumbling Syd, but still...)

...

A new year, a new load of vinyl.

Trevor and Simon, trading here as The Singing Corner meets Donovan - Jennifer Juniper:

Would that infer that someone apart from you bought it?

I didn't know that they released anything until a friend who was clearing out some records passed it on to me! It's a 12 inch single and isn't that bad. The extended remix version goes on for about 15 minutes and soon wears out its welcome. I have no idea if they ever did anything else or if there is an album out there. Probably only Trevor and Simon know the full story.

Eric Sykes and Hattie Jacques parody of the sixties television show Dr Kildare, The Great Bell, Marty Feldman. One of my all time favouite Monty Python songs is the overlooked, Muddy Knees a parody of a spiritual hymn sung by Terry Jones

Wendy Craig recorded a song called The Sound of Chidren which she recorded during her days as the star of Not In Front Of The Children. Forgotten all about this until I saw a clip of it on YouTube.

Andrew Sachs did a cover version of Joe Dolce's hit ,"Shadup Your Face" the b side was a song called "Waiter there is a flea in my soup" I would like to mention "Rhubarb Tart" and "I've Got A Ferret Sticking Up My Nose"by John Cleese but as far as I am aware there are no commercial recordings. I think the Ferret song was used in At Last The 1948 Show and I think he did it again for " I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again".

What percentage of this goldmine are you digitising, AG?

Not even half if I'm honest! I have a record player to dance around at home so I tend to really pick and choose what makes it onto mp3. It does mean I haven't bought a DVD for absolute yonks.
