Funny in places ('...hidden away at the top of the American Hit Parade..') but Lonnie, apparently, wasn't very fond of this send-up. Some pretty harsh barbs from Sellers here. Both voices are, indeed, Sellers.
Hey dave3i this came out some terty years afore you were born, so you probably don't recognise satire. LD played it straight, and Sellers was funnier than you could ever hope to be begorrah. Emotive words like idiot(idjit)and shite show your true nature, so why bother even looking at comedy. Rhetorical, and fear not shrivelling nuts, I won't be visiting here to read your invictive, so bother not.
Actually, THIS VERSION of the song IS called PUTTING ON THE SMILE, so you are the idjit. Check your facts before rubbishing someone. And you probably know what shite is. Check contents of mouth..extricate foot and check brown stuff in the vocal cord area..
'I'm a folk singer, man. I sing blues... Dad.'
Peter Sellers, the best there ever was.

Someone help me out. I had just heard the album and I thought both voices were Sellers. Who's the other guy?????

"heartless" I can't be certain but if it isn't Sellers himself, my bet would be on Michael Bentine, a fellow member of the "Goon Show."

A brilliant send-up! Definitely goon-worthy!
