18 Sep 10 - 01:31 PM (#2989277) Subject: RAMBLING SID RUMPO From: acegardener I had a record a long time ago by Kenneth Williams which disapeared somehow. I would like to find some digital recordings of his work as Rambling Sid as I would like to get a small act together, the lyrics would be handy, but it is the asides that go with them that are very entertaining and are a good buildup to the actual song. Can anybody help. |

See IPlayer to listen to recent broadcasts. Round the Horne and whatever any other K W programme was should still be available as CD from BBC Enterprises or whatever they call their commercial arm. |

18 Sep 10 - 01:51 PM (#2989288) Subject: RE: RAMBLING SID RUMPO From: Rob Naylor There's a fair bit on YouTube. As for gettihg an act together...he was very much "of his time" I reckon, and I'm not convinced there'd be much demand. The days when merely saying the words "cordwangler" or "throbbing me nurkers" could reduce an audience to helpless hysterics are (sadly, or perhaps not!) long gone. |

18 Sep 10 - 03:11 PM (#2989330) Subject: RE: RAMBLING SID RUMPO From: Georgiansilver Joe, he was a young cordwangler, Munging greebles he did go, And he loved a bogler's daughter By the name of Chiswick Flo. Vain she was and like a grusset Though her gander parts were fine, But she sneered at his cordwangle As it hung upon the line. So he stole a woggler's mooly For to make a wedding ring, But the Bow Street Runners caught him And the judge said "He will swing." Oh, they hung him by the postern, Nailed his mooly to the fence For to warn all young cordwanglers That it was a grave offence. There's a moral to this story, Though your cordwangle be poor, Keep your hands off other's moolies, For it is against the law. |
