Harry Bidgood

Another 78 from the boot sale pile. A 8" disc on the Broadcast label. "Me And Jane On A Plane" is a novelty number that was ideal for The Bonzo Dog Band and their ilk to play in their sets accompanies with daft props like a goggles, huge moustaches and scarves stiffened with wire so they looked like they were caught in the wind. Wikipedia says - "Henry Bidgood (1898 – November 15, 1957) known as "Harry" was an English composer, dance band leader and musical director for films.[1] Born in London the son of composer Thomas Bidgood.
