Joan from Wigan Discussion - Frank Crumit (1889-1943) (40) RE: Discussion - Frank Crumit 16 Sep 03


I picked up the Frank Crumit CD "The Song of the Prune" some time ago on Wigan market. The track listing is as follows:

The Song Of The Prune
Jack Is Every Inch A Sailor
I'm Bettin' The Roll On Roamer
Donald The Dub
Abdul Abulbul Amir
And Then He Took Up Golf
Around The Corner
Sissy
Grandfather's Clock
Would You Like To Take A Walk
The Old Apple Tree
I Can't Stand Sittin' In A Cell
Sunday In The Park
The Girl With The Paint On Her Face
The Return Of Abdul Abulbul Amir
A Gay Caballero
Get Away Old Man Get Away
Crazy Words Crazy Tune
Ukelele Lady
Thanks For The Buggy Ride
The Girl Friend
The Bride's Lament
Mountain Greenery
Billy Boy

The CD catalogue No. is SWNCD 018, and the sleeve notes invite you to send for a free catalogue from: Soundsrite Music Wholesale, The Old Dairy, Charles Street, Droylsden, Manchester M43 6HD, tel. 0161 370 6908. Don't know if they've any other Frank Crumit CDs available, and also don't know whether they only deal with dealers, but it may be worthwhile contacting them for further details.

I also picked up another album of his on cassette tape from the same stall, but can't lay my hands on it at the moment.

I'd be interested in buying the songbook if it's available anywhere. Any further info on that?
