Billy Merson recorded the song in 1933 for the Decca F series - so a very listenable electric recording. There may be oneor two of you who are unable toplay 78s (or so I've been told told) but if you have a vinyl deck, this performance was reissued on EMI Music For Pleasure MFP 1146 'The Great Days of MusicHall'. That was about 30 years ago, but it shouldn't be too difficult to find a copy. It must also have been issued on CD, but I can't at the moment remember where.
