  • Liberace introducing a solo act on his show seems rather a rarity, but here is Rolf Harris singing Jake the Peg. Look out for right at the end when Liberace has three hands on his piano!

    In Denmark the actor and ventriloquist Kai Løvring did an alternative version called "Frode, med det ekstra hoved" - which can be translated to "Fred with the extra head". He would wear a suit with two collars and had the extra (artificial) head on his shoulder and it would sing the diddle part.

    Rolf's nightclub act in the mid-sixties was charming, rogue-ish, and hilarious. It's documented on three LP records recorded in Vancouver nightclubs and released only in Canada. I don't think his nightclub act is well remembered, but to me it may be his enduring achievement. And a slice of a brand of good-natured public humor that, sadly, can no longer exist again.

    My nan used to sing this when I was a kid, but it always sounded like she was saying Jake The Pake... idk if I misheard her of if she misheard the original lyrics, it could be either. She's never been the brightest spark tho, she pronounces her own name wrong.

    Four hands on his piano at the end actually. Surprised there was no innuendo about the ladies, given his third leg and all.
