Thread Name: Lyr Req: Harem (Chas 'n' Dave - music hall song?)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Music Hall-esp 'Sitting in the Harem'
My Grandfather was in a Canadian Group called "The Dumbbells" and he wrote a song called, "Oh you Harem Skirt etc" in 1911. His name was Norman Fraser Allan. Perhaps it is this as they played over in England and France during the war.
