5.0 out of 5 stars
A lot of what I fancy did me good!,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Night at the Music Hall (Audio CD)
What a bonanza of bloody wonderful tunes! The best of Harry Champion, Florrie Ford, Geo. Formby, Sr., Vesta Tilly and others, with countless toe-tapping, naughty, infectious numbers, all recorded ca. 1900-20. I thought "Lordie, four discs?" but really four is nit half enough.

A marvelous artifact!,
This review is from: Night at the Music Hall (Audio CD)
The only drawback to this collection is that the recordings are mostly terrible, and with many songs it's nigh-impossible to hear the lyrics. That may be expected when the songs were recorded between 1900-1920, but just be aware that, as far as I can tell, nothing has been done to polish up these dusty old recordings.
The songs themselves are delightful, and you get four discs of them (each credited with the performer and the year it was recorded). Some of my favorites are "Never Let Your Braces Dangle" by Harry Champion and "Now I Have To Call Him Father" by Vesta Victoria. If you have any interest in music hall, vaudeville, or old-time music in general, this is an excellent buy. You'll be surprised how cheeky they can get! |
