ANOTHER CRACKER! Eight minutes packed with all the zest and popular songs we expect from George Mitchell's Black & White Minstrel Show.
When I lived with my Aunt Peggy, we watched EVERY show. With no recording facilities back then, the diary was cleared for Minstrels night! Our favourite was Delia Wicks - "I've Got No Strings" and "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" - because it was obvious from her genuine smile that she thoroughly enjoyed her work! Apparently she left show business at the age of 30 then worked in a shoe shop. Delia passed away in April 2010, aged 71. What a great loss to the world of entertainment.
Once again, the sound isn't great, so if anyone could forward a better quality LP track matching this excerpt, I would be extremely grateful, then I will re-upload it and possibly improve the picture quality a little at the same time. Jester
