    Default Solved: humphrey bogart

    as a young teenager growing up in the u.k during the mid 70's, i often listened to radio 1 before going to school. the breakfast show was hosted by dave lee travis. (the hairy cornflake)
    he would often play novelty songs and i remember one he played which was by a female singer and was about humphrey bogart. the lyrics i remember are;

    humphrey bogart i'm in love with you
    and every part you play
    and the greatest of all, the maltese falcon.

    the other side of the record also got played and was about a biker
    it contained the lyrics;

    he wore black leather boots..............and a black leather jacket with an (eagle) on the back.
    something..something..something ..on highway 101 (not sure about the number)

    i believe she was a former opera singer. i would love to hear the songs again.

    does anyone remember these songs or the artists name ??

    I think this might be Joan Morris And William Bolcom - Humphrey Bogart

    There's a sample here http://www.hi-fi.gr.jp/search.html?r...82%B3%E3%83%A0


    and the second song's called 'Black Denim Trousers and Motorcycle Boots'

    he wore black denim trousers and motorcycle boots
    and a black leather jacket with an eagle on the back
    he had a hopped-up 'cicle that took off like a gun
    that fool was the terror of highway 101
