goon on Redditors of a certain age: can any Goon Show aficionados identify a Max Geldray piece for me? - http://www.reddit.com/r...
"*"... I had a favourite song from Max, but my dad didn't know what it was called. ..."* Max "The Conk" Geldray played dozens of songs. One per episode. Can you name the episode? "harmonica virtuoso Max Geldray who performed mostly middle of the road numbers and jazz standards of the 30s and 40s accompanied by the big band." You can recognise Maxs' songs, he's the one playing the harmonica. In Aus, we used to get 30min shows & Max would play at the first break for years. From the 50's to the 90's. I used to survive on a 1/2 diet of goon shows delivered weekly by Auntie. Alas now, not a sausage. Bonus: * You can read about Max here <http://www.goon.org/usgoons...> * The musical format is described in detail here: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...>. * You can read his ob it here: <http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news...> * If you want to order shows or ask more detailed questions: <http://goon.org/usgoons...>" - Peter Renshaw
