WHAT
IS THAT SIGNATURE TUNE?
If you have ever asked, ‘What is the QUOTE ... UNQUOTE signature tune?’
and wondered if you could get hold of a copy, there is after all these years,
both good and bad news.
Entitled DUDDLY DELL, written and performed by Dudley Moore, it was the
B-side of his single STRICTLY FOR THE BIRDS (Parlophone
45R 4772) in 1961.
For years, when people asked me what it was, I had to tell them the
record was no longer available. But in
April 2002 it was re-released on an album entitled AUTHENTIC DUD, VOL. 2 by Harkit Records (HRKCD 8019). Alas, jubilation was short-lived as this
record has now been withdrawn for legal reasons. Tracks from the album may now be available as
a download from www.7digital.com
If you are still very keen, I might even be able to let you see the sheet
music.
