08 Feb 97 - 03:25 PM (#2040) Subject: Lydia, The Tattooed Lady From: Ralph Butts I'm looking for a recording or sheet music of this old gem. I have several lyrics and can do the chorus OK, but need the melody for the intro verses. Can anyone help? Thanks.....Tiger |
11 Feb 97 - 10:44 AM (#2124) Subject: RE: Lydia, The Tattooed Lady From: Bobby O'Brien Groucho Marx recorded this song. (He also sang it in one of the Marx Brother's old movies from the 30's. MCA recently released a cd called "Here's Groucho" MCAD-20847 with 10 of Groucho's best loved songs on it. That may have it on. I know for sure that the double-album recorded live in 1974 entitled "An Evening with Groucho" had Groucho performing that song for his audience in Carnagie Hall.

It appears near the beginning, sung by a a child actress whose name I have forgotten. |
