Charlie Drake, the diminutive comedian of the 1960's apparently made a single in 1976, written by Peter Gabriel and performed by him, Gabriel, Robert Fripp! and Phil Collins et al. Does anybody have any more information about this strange phenomenon? -------------

Apparently it was called "You'll Never Know", on the Charisma Label. -------------

Ah, Charlie Drake, "The Worker". He used to make Sunday night TV worth watching. I have a very rare single by him called "Puckwudgie". Offers over £100 considered! |

Blimey, it's in my Record Collector book. Charisma CB 270 You never
know/I'm big enough for me (produced by Peter Gabriel). Worth £8. Which is £3 more than Puckwudgie. |

Puckwudgie is very undervalued!

Not by £95 though! I'm going to start a campaign to get Charlie Drake on this site. Imagine the discussions we could have about whether he's prog or not and, if so, is he more prog than Queen? |

Probably be lost on the 95% of the members here who have never heard of him though!
