The Goons
A nice surprise in the post this morning. at productions sends me a vinyl recording of telling me he picked it up at a car boot sale and thought I might enjoy it.
Sure would. I'm obviously too young (I'm 43 this weekend) to have heard the original Goon Show transmissions, but always loved hearing the repeats when they aired on various radio stations during the seventies. I had a book of the scripts once, but lost it somewhere during various house moves from Inverness to Selkirk and back again.
Stuart produces some of the new comedy that comes from Demus, such as Sabotage and . I can hear echoes of The Goons in both of those.
Now, a serious problem emerges. Where can I lay my hands on an old turntable to actually hear this magical piece of vinyl?
