About This Item
Birlinn, 2008. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 7.5" x 10. H/B. 226 pages, condition is very good. CHIC MURRAY was a comic Colossus, a Salvador Dali of humour who turned the Celtic tradition of story-telling into an art form. His oblique, often perverse look at life was underpinned by a stunning sense of timing and led him to become one of the great comic innovators of the twentieth century. In Just Daft, written with the full co-operation of Chic's family, Robbie Grigor follows Chic's career from his amateur beginnings in the 1930s and subsequent double act with his wife Maidie all the way to the Royal Variety Show of 1956 and his appearances in films such as Casino Royale (1967), Gregory's Girl (I960) and the hit musical You'll Never Walk Alone (1984). With jokes, stories, photographs and tributes from fellow comedians and others, this is the ultimate celebration of the king of alternative humour
