Thread Name: Discussion - Frank Crumit (1889-1943)
Subject: RE: Discussion - Frank Crumit
I was born in 1934 and grew up in a home full of music - both light and serious.    We had an HMV wind-up portable gramaphone and quite a few Crumit records.   My favourite was always 'Thanks for the Buggy Ride'.
During my two years' military service I played both guitar and uke' in concert parties and 'Buggy Ride' was always popular. Even now - when my audiences tend to be geriatric or family - it is always well received.   However, I'm sure there are more words than i can remember; can anybody help? I also see references to My Grandfather's Clock, surely this predates F.C.
