AT LAST - THE GENUINE ARTICLE...
One Together Is Two...
Finally! I recently managed to obtain an original Golden Record of the Laurel & Hardy theme song from Larry Harmon's animated '60s TV show. Regular readers may recall that I recorded the song from YouTube some months back and made my own cd to replace the single I had as a kid. (Well, it wasn't actually 'mine' - it must've been acquired by either my father or brother, but I played it more often than them.)
There have been different versions of this record, though the content is the exact same in all of them. I believe it was first released in America as a 78 rpm 6 inch record (yellow vinyl), as well as in Britain by Goldentone Records (orange vinyl, not sure if it was 6 or 7inch, though think it was 6). At some stage, the US single also became available as a 45 rpm 7 inch single (black vinyl), which is the one pictured above. (I scanned the sleeve with the single still in it, which is why you can see the shape of the record.)
The one I had as a kid was the UK orange plastic record, and if one ever comes up on ebay, I'll buy it if I can, but in the meantime it's good to have an 'official' recording of the song. To be honest, I probably prefer 45 rpm for a single, and the sleeve isn't radically different to the UK Goldentone one, so I won't be too disappointed if the original one stays beyond my grasp. One look at the cover and I'm once more on the living-room carpet, sat in front of our old cabinet record player, singing along to this humorous ditty.
Just to remind you, below is what the Goldentone one looked like, along with the cd I made for myself.
