Blaster Bates 1001 Gelignites

[@cefngwyn]

I last listened to this recording when I was in my early teens. My friends would gather at my house and listen to L.P.'s of Blaster Bates, The Goon Show and 'Derek & Clive' (Dudley Moore and Peter Cook) on my mom's stereo system - those were the days.

Today (5th Feb 2024), would have been Blasters 101st birthday. RIP old friend.

I used to listen them on tape while I was pregnant with my eldest child, that's over 43 years ago

Spent many an hour listening to Blaster on record with my late father in law almost crying with laughter, as funny now as ever.

Not heard this for almost 50 years. Brilliant!

I first heard Blaster years ago on vinyl but I am pleased to say most of his recordings are available on CD. If you search he can be found on a certain music app!

Saw this great man twice in Doncaster... Great memories.

Had all Blaster’s recordings and been seen him loads of times in Stoke on Trent.
