ValuerJim 277 Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 If you like Hoffnung, Borge, and Flanders, you should love Tom Lehrer. Try listening to the Vatican Rag. Paddy Roberts is also worth a listen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MargieH 7,594 Posted November 4, 2019 Report Share Posted November 4, 2019 Was there a group called the King Brothers, or is my mind playing tricks. They each played a different instrument I think... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
