Corbett From: GUEST,zander I expect everyone is familiar with Harry's fine rendition of the shanty 'Blow the Man Down' from the collection of sea songs and shanty's 'Farewell Nancy ' but does anyone know of anymore recordings by Harry H. Corbett. Regards Dave |

Harry Corbett was Sooty's creator, Harry H Corbett was the star of "Steptoe and Son" Did you get to see that in America? Did you understand it? I don't suppose there were many rag and bone men in the USA. Bron. |
