@hexag1 Formby's songs are awash with innuendo. Like "is he kissing her under the nose... or under the arch where the sweet william grows" :D

@ellie050394 So do I - I laugh every time I hear this - today's teens who are crazy over JB are so missing out

On one recording he sings "playing with mi uke" as opposed to "playing on mi uke" in this more polite version. Good clean filth!

said, "Come inside and see your wife and child!"
My heart, it jumped with joy. I could see it was a boy for he had a ....ukulele in his hand!
All his songs are so freaking funny!!! I love how rude he is without actually being rude, if that makes sense!

Actually, the banjo ukulele was very popular in that time period. but no one quite played the uke in the split stroke style that Formby pioneered

@BsJimmi - no, banjos are much bigger. It's a banjolele.

@hexag1 - I think the innuendo is definitely there, yes.

Strictly speaking It's a banjolele (banjo-ukulele or ukulele-banjo) - a cross between a banjo and a ukulele. Basically it is a ukulele with the body of a banjo. It looks like a short armed banjo, but it's essentially a ukulele because it has 4 strings and is tuned and played like a ukulele rather than a banjo.
