[78-L] Formby.

[Bud Black]

I would love to hear some of your efforts in this regard.  I am a great fan
of George, Jr.  Would it be possible for you to post the John Willie tune
(by both Formbys) where they can be heard?

Hi!
 
I'm just transferring dome George Formby SENIOR records. However,
Geroge Formby JUNIOR (the one who played ukulele) re-made his
father's song 'John Willie, Come On' as just about his first
published recording. The original version was 1908 and the re-make by
his son, 1926. The spooky thing, however, is that they sound as if
recorded by the same man! George Formby Sr. died in 1921.
 
Earl.
