Fried Wetleg RIP
Discussion
Dear All,
respect to the old swinger, fawk singer and professional Bristolian who expired last week.
I have a particularly fond memory of seeing him well before his oldest swinger fame at Bath Uni. in 1975. One of those evenings when one's heckles and the performer's responses were in tune and got the whole audience laughing throughout,
regards,
Jet

Yes indeed, Farewell Fred.
"Now I've got my thing together, man, I'm really freaking out
Smoking black Old Holborn resin, mainlining on draught stout
and having Hang-Ups
I'm like the rest, I've had problems with my sex-life
since I fell and sprained my wrist
and my other songs are twice as bad as this"

My sister-in-law was at teachers' training college with him. Met him myself a few times in about 1976-77.
He spoke to me once. Said, "Get out of the way, I'm trying to get to the bar."
A true one-off, as hilarious off-stage as he was on.
Here's a sample of his work:
