Released
February 1962, I found a stock copy of this record, then a short time
later a job lot of comedy singles was listed on a certain auction
site, the listing had all the titles listed, quite a few were on my
wants list, I won the auction at the listing start price, the Arthur
Haynes record was amongst the listing, it was not mentioned that it
was a promo, when the records arrived there was one more that was not
on the listing, so matching up the titles to the list, the extra
record was Hughie Green - The Puppet Song, I already had a copy of
that record however the new copy was in much better condition than my
original copy, there were 21 records in the job lot, only one was in
poor condition.
Arthur Haynes
19th May 1914 - 19th November 1966, I remember watching the Arthur
Haynes Show on TV, his catch phrase "Up to my neck in muck
and bullitts for the like of you" and his tramp character, his
co stars Dermot Kelly, Patricia Hayes, Rita Webb and Nicolas Parsons.
While
running the original blog I had the BBC contact me, they wanted to
use my recordings in a documentary about Arthur Haynes as their copy
was in poor condition, the documentary was produced and shown on BBC
but did not in the end include the records.
I was going to
post this record before Hughie Green record.
