Thankyou sooooooooo much for posting this, used to have the record about 25 years ago myself, played it to death, love it.

ahhh now I know why its called little pieces of hancock....my mum owned the full LP and my brother and I used to listen to it constantly...that and her Max at the Met album (Max Miller of course) ! I wondered why this one started on the wrong sketch...think the first one on the LP is the publicity photo shoot followed by boxing, or maybe it was the Play....Hattie Jaques voices on some of the sketches was fabulous.

Thanks for posting this up though...must try and find that album in the loft !

This is from "Hancock's Diary" and contains some of the superb exchanges between Hancock and Williams which were the real highlights of all the Radio productions. Other exchanges between them which were hilarious e.g. with Williams as a vet examining Hancock for an Insurance policy and Williams as the Photographer in the

Publicity Photograph show what a great combination they provided yet was never fully exploited because they did not get on with each other in real life.

Long live the RAF!

bought the record at a boot sale about 25 years ago - and listened to it endlessly. Lost it about a decade ago in a move - great memories!!
