  • Its been 5 years since my boss and good friend ,
    sadly passed away on May 19th, 2006,
    Freddie Garrity passed away in Wales whilst on holiday.
    He was 69 and will be sadly missed by thousands of people
    the world over.
    To me, he was a friend and a teacher.
    He taught me how to have fun with music and
    how to entertain people. He was a master of this.
    During the six years that I performed as a Dreamer with Freddie,
    I took hundreds of hours worth of home video film.
    We travelled the world from Europe to the Caribbean,
    Australia and America.
    In 2004, I compiled all this film into an interesting
    one hour and ten minute video
    featuring the best parts of my travels with Freddie.
    The film includes many of my favourite tracks which Freddie
    recorded way back in the Sixties with the original Dreamers.
    This film is an intriguing insight into the working band
    that was to be Freddie's last set of Dreamers.

    Loved Pinky and Perky back in the day and Freddy and the Dreamers were really good as well as being incredibly uncool .

    Had this on VHS in the 90s, I'm 31 but my Mum grew up with Pinky & Perky so bought it for me, always loved this little song!

    My sister and I used to watch Good Neighbors ( The Good Life in the UK) They had these two pigs named Pinky and Perky. We didn’t know they were named after this show. My sister had a cat named Perky and my cat is named Pinky. Here in the US, we grew up with Alvin and the Chipmunks

    My grandfather nicknamed 2 of the bosses/ "directors" at work "Pinky & Perky." This was in the early '70s. One of them was a really nasty piece of work, very "up himself." He often tried to make things very difficult for my grandfather because he wanted him out, but his little schemes didn't work. One day he called my grandfather into his office and said: (fake posh accent)" I hear that someone has been referring to Mr. (don't know the other guy's name) and myself as "Pinky and Perky." (Hoping to catch him out). My grandfather replied, deadpan: "Really, Sir? Fancy that." Grandpa left the man's office and guessed who had "told" on him - another colleague, whom he never trusted again. He carried on as usual till retirement. Any time Pinky & Perky get a mention I laugh because of the story about the nicknames.

    Freddie was a great singer. The best man at my parents' wedding looked just like him.
    RIP Vlasta Dalibor who died today.

    This version of the song is infinitely better than the album version and, unfortunately, the album version is the only version with good sound quality. Where can I find a better sound quality of THIS one??

    Pinky is the one wearing the beret, by the way...

    • @arthurvasey
      @arthurvasey Před 3 lety

      One wore a red outfit and the other blue - but, since red and blue look the same in black and white - even if they had a third pig in green, you couldn’t have told them apart - Perky wore a beret!
      Incidentally, who is the other porcine character to the right of the telly? He or she is cute, for a puppet!
