I loved these guys, still do! My dad played all their stuff in house day and night! The nejghborhood kids all came to our house to hear it but the dog lost his mind and had to be put in a home! My dad invited General DE Gaulle to spend the night and the next day the Secret Service took my dad away for a coupla hours. Never spoke again and mama left town with a carpet cleaner salesman who cleaned her carpet

This is the song I best remember from the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band - it was so topical at the time and smooth with it - we are talking over 50 years ago and it still stands up!!!!!!!!!
