Released 1959 and unusual for a UK released 45 some came in a Picture Sleeve, the arrangement of the song is taken direct from the Lonnie Donegan version including the jokes, in the introduction it is Perky who is snoring, to distinguish the puppets in TV's black & white days Perky always wore a hat, in more than one quiz this has come out as a queston, one young team had no idea who Pinky & Perky were.
Pinky & Perky ~ Does your chewing gum lose its flavour ~ 1959
For some time I have been backing up all my music to an 8TB SSD drive, prior to this all my music was backed up to a pair of 4TB disc drives, I recently acquired some additional external memory and was backing up the data as I had realised that if the SSD was lost, stolen or failed I would lose all the data. half way through the transfer the SSD drive failed, the drive was still under warranty eventually after much correspondence has been sent for repair and will be returned with no data, I think the additional memory caused the problem so I have not used it since and will probably bin it, as a stopgap I brought a 20TB HDD drive and was going to buy a 16TB SSD drive unfortunately for me the SSD drive was out of stock.
I have a new connecting cable for the original drive on order and will transfer the data to the new back up memory, when I was doing the original transfer their was too much data to transfer in one go I was transferring it in blocks and was thinking shall I delete the block once I had transferd it luckily I decided not to delete once transferd.
