[ One Day Music / 3 CD ]
Release Date: Wednesday 16 March 2016
The British comedy scene was dominated during the Fifties by the anarchic splendour that was The Goon Show. Its stars were Peter Sellers, Spike Milligan, Harry Secombe and Michael Bentine, it combined ludicrous plotlines with surreal humour and was responsible for many words and phrases entering the English language. Listen to the best of those comedy gems on this 3 disc compilation, along with highlights from George Formby, Max Miller, Kenneth Williams and Bernard Cribbins.
