The Goons – Goon.. But Not Forgotten | Vinyl LP | VG+
A classic British comedy recording featuring the legendary trio Spike Milligan, Peter Sellers, and Harry Secombe, collectively known as The Goons. Originally broadcast on BBC radio in the 1950s, their surreal humour and absurd storytelling influenced generations of comedians including Monty Python. Goon.. But Not Forgotten preserves two extended Goon Show performances, capturing the chaotic wit, eccentric characters, and rapid-fire wordplay that made the series one of the most influential comedy programmes ever produced.
This Parlophone pressing includes the full performances “Six Charlies In Search Of An Author” and “Insurance – The White Man’s Burden.” These recordings showcase the trio at their peak, blending scripted comedy with spontaneous absurdity and sound-effects-driven radio theatre. For collectors of British comedy, radio history, or classic spoken-word vinyl, this LP is a wonderful period piece from the golden era of BBC entertainment.
Genre: Comedy / Spoken Word / Radio Theatre
