You nailed the guitar tone. Had I not known it wasn't Mike, I'd have thought for sure it was him. The guitar vibrato is the only thing that gives it away. Mike's vibrato is VERY distinctive. I can pick it out anytime I hear him play and no-one else I have ever heard does it the same way. Good job.
Absolutely Brilliant. And the way you married the music with laurel and Hardy was sheer genius. really sounds like the good old days when Les and Mike Oldfield worked together which is great.
Where was taken Laurel & Hardy scene cut? In which film or short appears? A fantastic and very sympathetic tune to listen at every Christmas time. Congratulations and Merry Christmas to you and Les.
