Tony Blackburn - A Laugh In Every Pocket (Tandem, 1975)

Blurb:

Tony Blackburn breaks the fun barrier with a chart-topping album of putrid jokes and funtastic humour. A must for all three-legged pedestrians, essential to any self-respecting collector of glass eyes, compulsive reading for dachshund owners, and guarenteed to get your ears vibrating, your eyeballs rotating and your brain cells bubbling. Can you live without a copy?

"Tony Blackburn's jokes are like prunes — they keep you laughing regularly. " - Ed Stewart
"The finest thing of his kind since his Life of Grampworth, but lacks an Index. " - Terry Wogan
"A sensation! Never to be repeated " - Tony Blackburn's Mother.
"Dear Tony, if you were going to steal gags why didn't you steal any good ones?" - Kenny Everett

I can only assume that those who lazily trot out the tired old myth than Tony Blackburn's jokes are unfunny - no names, no pack drill, it was Harry E. Turner and Lord John Probert, etc. - have yet to come within the orbit of A Laugh In Every Pocket. Here everyone's favourite zany prankster teams up with illustrator John Richardson and Arnold the dog to serve up a veritable feast of chuckles! I can see you're all nodding your heads sadly and going "he's pissed again!" but ....

"Unfunny"??! He's more hilarious than a stink bomb at a funeral! And I haven't even touched on the masterly 12 tips on How to lead a constructive day yet! If only Dave Lee "The Hairy Cornflake" Travis could have been persuaded to get in on the act with a rival volume then I might have - I dunno, Killed myself, I expect! But our Tony - he's the man!

Vault - Let's start every day with a rip-roarious side-splitter!, and so on.
