Kenneth Williams 'The Best Of Rambling Syd Rumpo'**** FAULTY**** 

The Legendary Rambling Syd. A true inspiration to all budding musicians and would be folk singers.

Absolutely marvellous. A true British comedy genius. Nothing comes close... Literally laugh out loud.

Thank you so much for this! This is comedy from way before I was born but think Round The Horne is the funniest thing I have heard. Genius stuff!!

yes this is a good track often sing them to myself while driving thanks

Haha thanks Joe, joking aside he did have a great talent and until it was too late greatly undervalued, as the old adage goes 'you don't know what you've got till its gone'.

There is only one Rambling Syd!!!

Ken was a one of a kind genius. HIs dry wit and his repartee is 2nd to none. Would love to know what his IQ was and what went on inside that brilliant brain. A multi talented man if ever there was one.

It is my personal opinion that Mr Rumpo is the doyen of folk singers. His remarkable renditions of evergreens such as "Green Grow My Nadgers O," The plaintive "Ballad of the Wogglers Moulie" and his biggest hit "The Runcorn Splod Cobblers song" are true classics.

God Bless Ken ..superb !

all that really matters did you laugh,did it make you happy,and thats all that matters if not go listen to some other STUFF

He is "Unique". He can perform in any style. There will never be another Rambling Syd. His fan base which is predominantly in Runcorn and Frinton hold him in high regard. A statue may soon be erected on the Frinton harbour wall.

thanks that would be fantastic. so enjoying it and then it ends with about 15 mins left...maybe its my browser?

Keep on Rambling.

It's taken directly from the vinyl album but something has gone in the upload, I'll be back in the UK very soon so will re upload then

Mmmmmmmm not too sure i'll re upload when I get the chance, some of the earlier parts don't sound too good either

Fank You! Fank You! Fank You!!

Don't waste your breath Peter

It is your contention that RSR has not yet taken up the art of folk singing ... despite recording the album on this site and the dozens of folk songs he sang on Round The Horne?

I refer you back to my "original" comment. It is self explanatory. Mr Rumpo would find the bona banter most amusing.

With the heads not yet cleaned.

Rude isn't the word, if you don't like it MOVE ON

A "Would be" folk singer is a someone who is "thinking" about taking up the art of folk singing not as yet an exponent of the art......ie Rambling Syd.

Use a better cartridge / turntable / preamp /digital converter, etc. This sounds like a $40 cassette deck.

What's the difference between a would-be folk singer and a folk singer?

whats going on with the last half!??

So how is it that "the doyen of folk singers" is a would-be folk singer who is thinking about taking up the art of folk singing?

Any time. Because it sounds awful.

Rather than meaninglessly rambling on and on about nothing, you might want to consider the contradictions you have littered the comments section with. You know - the ones I have pointed out several times.
