Another Charity shop rescue. The two albums are "Milligan Preserved" and "A Collection Of Spikes", I have removed duplicates. As an aside the two tracks "Wish I knew" & "Will I find my love today" are Spike singing "STRAIGHT", legend has it that these were recorded in one take during a session while Spike waited for Peter Sellers to finish using the toilet, I have no idea quite how true that is, but I for one am perfeclty happy to believe it.

Terence Alan Patrick Se.n "Spike" Milligan KBE (16 April 1918 . 27 February 2002) was a comedian, writer, musician, poet, playwright, soldier, and actor. Milligan's early life was spent in India, where he was born, but the majority of his working life was spent in the United Kingdom. He became an Irish citizen in 1962 after the British government declared him stateless. He was the co-creator, main writer and a principal cast member of The Goon Show, performing a range of roles including the popular Eccles.
Milligan wrote and edited many books, including Puckoon and his seven-volume autobiographical account of his time serving during the Second World War, beginning with Adolf Hitler: My part in his downfall. He is also noted as a popular writer of comical verse, much of his poetry was written for children, including Silly Verse for Kids (1959). After success with the ground-breaking British radio programme, The Goon Show, Milligan translated this success to television with Q5, a surreal sketch show which is credited as a major influence on the members of Monty Python's Flying Circus.
