The SCAFFOLD
Queen Elizabeth Hall
\ UK - yellow and black PARLOPHONE - PCS 7051
Very scarce 1968 ORIGINAL British first pressing vinyl on the original PARLOPHONE Records first pressing with the old 'flipback' cover = the old sixties British/European way of producing their album covers where the front seams fold over to the back cover...
Includes the original 1968 UK Parlophone inner sleeve....
The result of the meeting of Michael McCartney (brother of Beatle Paul), who would work as Mike McGear to avoid accusations of coat-tailing, and Post Office engineer John Gorman, the Scaffold took a blend of absurd humor and catchy songs to chart-topping glory throughout the 1960s. Their lineup filled out with Roger McGough and Adrian Henri, the group was briefly known as the Liverpool One Fat Lady All Electric Show, to the horror of everyone around them. Henri soon departed. A change of name later, they were gaining a reputation as one of the most amusing outfits on the scene, with a residency at Peter Cook's Establishment Club (where the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band also held court).
The Scaffold's biggest successes were their cheerful singles, starting with "Thank U Very Much" and continuing with "Lily the Pink" (a sterilized adaptation of an old rugby song, featuring Jack Bruce on bass) and the somewhat incomprehensible "Gin Gan Goolie," all of which had a knack for sticking in the mind on endless repeat without causing undue annoyance. These three songs, in particular, are well remembered even up to well over 40 years later...
