Nine
Months after its original release, and still hot on
the heels of "Grandad". EMI's
budget label, Music For Pleasure, reissued
Clive Dunn's "Permission To Speak Sir"
LP with new cover artwork and liner notes and the
"Grandad Requests..." prefix on the title.
Liner
Notes
"If one were to ask "who is the most exciting
male singer in the world today?" "He is
the one man who can cause women of all ages to instantly
fall in love at the sound of his voice, or the animalistic
move of his hips?" The name that immediately
springs to mind is Jones - That's right...Corporal
Jones (the Butcher)...or as he is known out of uniform:
Clive Dunn, the youngest old man in the world. Clive
in his role as Jonesy on the BBC programme "Dad's
Army" has been setting female hearts a flutter
for some time.

Now,
we are happy to say, he has moved into the pop world
with his No.1 smash hit Grandad which was originally
a track from this, his first major album.
His
choice of material I'm sure you'll agree covers a wide
range, from the heart-warming plea of permission to
sing sir, on through such personalised favourites as
I play the spoons and Cleaning my rifle (and dreaming
of you), to the nostalgic lyric of How many Christmasses.We
feel that each track has an unmistakable quality of
its own and is sure to suit every taste. So we invite
you to sit back, relax and enjoy the world's newest
pop star Corporal Jones (The Butcher) alias, Clive Dunn.
