    What are you looking for? Songs? You should be able to find some, I managed to find Isle Of Man, Leaning On A Lampost, When I'm Cleaning Windows and With My Little Ukulele In My Hand on the internet.

    'The Best of George Formby' is not even 8 dollars on Amazon, why don't you just get that?
    "I think both me and Morrissey are about as proud as anyone can be about those records. I'm proud of everything the band did, and I'm proud of the relationship, and I'm proud of the friendship. I don't have any feud going on. I support what Andy's doing, and I don't know what Morrissey's doing but I'm behind it." - Johnny Marr, 2013.

    Really?! usually I d/l stuff before I buy it to see if I really want to spend the money on it but for eight bucks why not, right? The handful of songs that I know are on there anyhow.

    I want to find some other stuff too, that isn't on those 'Best of' and 'Greatest Hits' comps..

    I found an awesome site! The tracks are ripped from 78rpm discs but they've cleaned them up and the recordings sound AMAZING, especially considering the source. I'll soon be able to see how they stand up next to the cd releases (I ordered the 'Best of' from Amazon the other day) The site has have a pretty decent selection. Most of the more well known tracks are present and things that I've not seen released on any CD in my searching over the last couple of weeks. You can d/l a section(8-10 tracks) at a time or a track at a time. There are also a handful of George Formby Sr. tracks on the site as well. Definitely worth checking out.

    Thanks for everyone's assistance tracking stuff down for me.
    Cheers!
