Although The Black & White Minstrel Show vanished from our TV screens in 1978, the Minstrels were still permitted to sing on BBC Radio - because we couldn't see what a decadent bunch of racists they were ;-)

This 1981 MONO AUDIO cassette recording turned up at home a couple of days ago, and I know there are lots of people out there who would love to hear it, so here goes...
