I remember around 1960 sat around the breakfast table with the radio on listening to standing on the corner Happy days

Brings back memories of the excitement of a small girl seeing the brothers at church on a Sunday in Hornchurch.

Wonderful Video and very funny. This brings back childhood memories of watching our small rented television in our house on the SE London council estate. It's great to see them all again. What a different world it was all those years ago.

That was excellent, and very funny too. I've always preffered the arrangement of your version of Standing On The Corner to that of The Four Lads, that's a tad too brassy , whereas this one sounds warmer. The bit at the end with the inserts of the original and the lipsynching would make a great little clip on its own, especially with the tag from the guy at the picnic table!

Only in last few years found out about these guys from M&W shows Two of a Kind. Loved the comedy sketch they did with Eric, Ernie & their writers.

Hope they're aware of all the nice comments. I was 10 in 1960 and remember them on tv. GREAT entertainers Also found out years later that Dennis wrote the Black Beauty tv series music. IF that's not the BEST TV MUSIC EVER I don't know what is.

Have Film score 'Shane', 'Blue Danube', & 'Black Beauty' on mobile phone to listen too when on long bus journeys here in Rural Hampshire. I lived on a East London council estate in those days... gotta repeat... You were well thought of by everyone. All the best

Hi Denis. Never saw you with Morecombe and wise. Are you still composing music?

I most certainly am (still working!). King Brothers made about a dozen appearances on the Morecambe and Wise shows, maybe more--and had worked with them years before on the Variety circuit, when they were unknown. I think there are about 5 clips with M & W on this channel.
