The Bonzo Dog doo Dah Band
The Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band were a Jazz, Rock band from England. They were formed in 1963 by musician Viv Stanshall. They created their own kinda Looney Toon sound and delivered some brilliant stage performances at the live shows they played across the Northern England Working Men’s club circuit. The group had Five successful albums. However, they disbanded in 1970.
The group also made quite a few Live TV Appearances as well as providing the sound track for various Television programmes. However, their most famous on screen appearance was probably The Beatles movie The Magical Mystery Tour which they were asked to appear in by Paul McCartney who was a good friend of Stanshall’s. They were also asked to stand in for Geoff Stephen’s 1968 concept The New Vaudeville Band on Top of the Pop’s for their hit ‘Winchester Cathedral. But they turned this down. Sure it would have gave them an Instant hit but they chose to stick to their own material.
