I purchased this CD to listen to songs by George as I remember them from 63 yrs ago. They were excellent and the sound was superb. I give it five stars!!

I remember this artist from my childhood in England. I never missed any of his movies. His humor is typically English and sometimes a little risque and may not be understood by the average American. The collection on these two CDs include many of Mr. Formby's most famous songs, his signature tunes "Leaning on a Lampost" and "When I'm Cleaning Windows" are classics. This record is a must for anyone who remembers this great comedian, and wants to recapture the entertainment that he brings.
