ALLAN SHERMAN & HERMAN'S HERMITS - 1964 - Comedy Routine

  • 8 years ago
Allan Sherman (born Allan Copelon; November 30, 1924 – November 20, 1973) was an American comedy writer and television producer who became famous as a song parodist in the early 1960s. His first album, My Son, the Folk Singer (1962), became the fastest-selling record album up to that time.[2] His biggest hit single was "Hello Muddah, Hello Fadduh," a comic novelty in which a boy describes his summer camp experiences to the tune of Ponchielli's Dance of the Hours. He is not to be confused with the songwriter Al Sherman who, coincidentally, also died in fall of 1973.

Herman's Hermits are an English beat (or pop) band, formed in Manchester in 1964.
