Sing A Rude Song album cover image

Sing A Rude Song is a musical that starred Barbara Windsor (as Marie Lloyd), Denis, Quilley (as Alec Hurley) and Maurice Gibb (as Bernard Dillon). A musical about the stage actress Marie Lloyd, here's what the LP jacket says about her:

Marie Lloyd was born a hundred years ago in 1870. During her career she experienced continuous professional success from the age of 17. She created songs like My Old Man, One Of The Ruins and Oh Mr. Porter and brought colour, liveliness of observation, art of a very high order and a touch of what she used to call "the old blue bag" to faithful audiences until she died within hours of collapsing on stage at Edmonton in October, 1922.

Her private life was a different matter, and Sing A Rude Song tells the story of her troubles with two of her three husbands, the coster-singer Alec Hurley and the much younger Irish jockey, Bernard Dillon, who won the Derby in 1910 and was subsequently warned off. She had her troubles with authority, too, crossing the L.C.C. licensing authorities and being left out of the First Royal Command Variety Performance in 1912 at a time when she was the undisputed Queen of the Halls. The musical had its first performance at the Greenwich Theatre on February 17, 1970 and opened at the Garrick Theatre in London's West End on May 26.
