Bonzo Dog Band - I Love to Bumpity Bump
This is the fifth and final album released by the band in 1972 titled "Let's Make Up and Be Happy." The group had already disbanded when United Artists Records (which absorbed the Bonzos label Liberty Records) informed the band members that the group owed the label one more album. This farewell album was the result. In 2007, a reissue of the original release on CD by EMI with 6 bonus tracks. Most were solo recordings by the members of the group.

Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band Watermelons
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band (also known as The Bonzo Dog Band, The Bonzo Dog Dada Band and, colloquially, as "The Bonzos") are a band created by a group of British art-school denizens of the 1960s. Combining elements of music hall, trad jazz, psychedelic rock, and avant-garde art, the Bonzos came to the attention of a broader British public through a children's television programme, Do Not Adjust Your Set. The band's formation Unusually for a band, the actual date of conception for the Bonzos is known: 25 September 1962. It was on that day that Vivian Stanshall (tuba, but later lead vocals along with other wind instruments) and fellow art student Rodney Slater (saxophone) bonded over a transatlantic broadcast of a boxing match between Floyd Patterson and Sonny Liston. Rodney Slater had previously been playing in a trad jazz band at college with Chris Jennings (trombone) and Tom Parkinson (sousaphone). Roger Wilkes (trumpet) was the founder of the original band at the Royal College of Art, along with Trevor Brown (banjo). They slowly turned their style from more orthodox music towards the sound of The Alberts and The Temperance Seven. Vivian was their next recruit and on that day in 1962, he and Rodney christened the band, The Bonzo Dog Dada Band. Bonzo the dog was a popular British cartoon character created by artist George Studdy in the 1920s and Dada after the early 20th century art movement. Not long after Vivian, Rodney and Tom <b>...</b>
