Clinton Ford and George Chisolm-The Old Bazaar In Cairo

[laconic94]

This song is often associated with the Sand dance act from the 1930's by Wilson, Keppel & Betty. But the song was actually written by Ford & Chisholm in the 50's.

Oh we used this in a pantomime I was in just a few days ago. Gosh such a good laugh dancing back stage to the this x'D especially since I was the arse in a camel suit x'D

[Woodworker1947]

We used this as 'backing' when we perfomed the Sand Dance in the Northants area in the 1960's/70's/80's and now have it on CD - sad that Clinton is no longer with us as I would have loved to have got in touch to tell him how effective this song was as it entertained a lot of people in our domain but they perhaps didn't know who sung it - Gawd Bless yer, Sir! - truly missed..

Used to think he was terribly risque when I was about 8 and still think he's great. Thanks for all the laughs - RIP.

The very best singer of dixieland (and many other styles) Had the good fortune of spending time with Clinton in the early nineties when he was on tour. Classy gentleman with a great sense of humour RIP Clinton

I worked with Clinton on my first summer season, in Yarmouth. Clinton was top of the bill, a great guy with a superb voice.

God bless you Clinton.

Great number, Clinton Ford was a ''great old pro'' met him many times always an absolute gentleman, very charming and terribly smart, he was a good friend of Ronnie Hilton who lived nearby and we often met together, Ronnie too was a great entertainer and human being. Oh dear where are the people of their calibre today, we've lost so many with the passing of time, God Bless your memory Clinton.

Clint passed away 21st October 2009. A lovely guy and superb entertainer. We're gonna miss you Clint. God bless.
