	BBC - h2g2 - George Formby - the Entertainer
		Formby's film persona - shy, naive and awkward when encountering the opposite sex - was quite at odds with the risque lyrical content of his songs.
		Formby's catchphrases included 'Never touched me' after just escaping from a scrape, 'Mother!' while in the middle of a scrape, and 'It's turned out nice again, hasn't it?', usually at the end of the film when all of the scrapes have been dealt with.
		Formby's film career ended before the appearance of the first long-playing records in 1948 - which probably benefited the films, as there would have been no temptation to try to squeeze in extra songs in order to provide enough material for a soundtrack album.

		Formby’, and from then on the name 'George and Beryl' was synonymous with George’s meteoric rise to fame.

		This compilation of some of George Formby's best-known songs is an absolute joy.
		Strange though that in many songs it was taboo to mention something as tame as "ladies knickers" yet (presumably) acceptable to make the kind of derogatory remarks about "foreign folk" you'll hear in a song like "Hindoo Man".
		With a winning combination of his talented bango playing and singing, and his witty lyrics (Chinese Laundry Blues is my favourite) this CD really plays tribute to the most popular performer of the war period.
