Actually I didn't mind Rolf when I was a Kid.

These were my virtual anthems when I was growing up. I remember I used to let them rip to my self ( the chourses anyway) when I was alone in the country.

THE DEADWOOD STAGE "DORIS DAY"

[noirua]

The odd laugh or two, probably before the "deadwood stage", but anyway, he'd have loved good olde Doris: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZPkrkT6BVQ

It's a bit crackly this. Yes indeed, and so would you be if they'd played you this many times. How very, very jolly anyway, thank you Charles.

Charles Penrose, pen name Charles Jolly, sang this in 1922, and here is his epitaph, long forgotten: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Laughing_Policeman_(song))
