  • @godznuts I won't argue with you about his singing (although let's not forget, this is comedy) - but if you're questioning George Formby's uke playing skills then you've lost the plot - he is the greatest master of the uke ever to have lived and there's plenty of footage to prove it.

  • @mkcwebmaster I don't know about that. Ever hear of Roy Smeck?

  • @superjules How many movies did Roy Smeck star in?

  • @godznuts

    Oh my God, he doesn't suck! If you don't like George, don't listen to him. No-one's making you. But you're missing out.

  • @mkcwebmaster the absolute master!

    

  • Found this thanks to Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy of all things.

  • have you ever seen a chinese window cleaner? i havent.

  • @godznuts Formby was a comedy act. He didn't need a great voice. His charm was in his affable nature and his unrivaled skill on the Ukulele (as well as many double entendres which were risque for his era). Few people in the world have mastered the split-stroke and even fewer can reach Formby's level, his solo's are the stuff of legend in Ukulele circles. Some Ukulele circles in th UK get fed up with being linked to him just because of the Ukulele but none question his skills.

  • Good clean comedy with a nod and a wink to undercover smuttyness included ( how dare he mention cammy knickers on the air)...nobody todays understands it..him and Benny Hill where two of a kind...

  • lol, north england!
