On this day of music 1968 - Liverpool folk group The Scaffold were at No.1 on the UK singles chart with Lily The Pink, this years Christmas No.1. Lily the Pink was a new version of an older folk song entitled The Ballad of Lydia Pinkham, and a similar version was the unofficial regimental song of the Royal Tank Corps, at the end of World War II. To me, we British have always had an odd love of humorous records and many a time Ive personally rated them too silly for description, then theyve reached the top pop chart position. https://youtube/watch?v=2x8D4T--0v4
