Sir Harry Lauder: "The Laird of The Music Hall."

[AFS1970]

I also have some of his 78's that were my mother's. I think most of them are one sided records, and quite a bit thicker than the vinyl discs of my time. It makes me remember what the C in CD really stands for.

I have a question. Why is there a tie around the mid section of the "wicks" of Harry's bonnet? I like it whatever the answer.

Having heard a good deal of Harry Lauder on radio in the good old days of the 1950s and ’60s, I retain a soft spot for him. From time to time I look up his numbers on YouTube and play them – much to the irritation of my wife!
For some reason I am especially fond of The Road to the Isles.
I recall reading not so long ago that he wrote Keep Right on to the End of the Road after the death of his son, an army captain, on the Western Front. His last words, apparently, were “Carry on”.
