everyone, literally everyone



This week's Contrast Podcast is looking for songs about every Tom, Dick and Harry. I was expecting Waits, Thompson and Nilsson but of the three only got old Schmillsson. I picked a nice version of 'Every man should be free' sung by Harry Belafonte & The Smothers Brothers that I dug up off YouTube yesterday!

contrast podcast 59 - every tom, dick & harry

Here's the video of my pick in it's full glory:

I hunted that video down after you mentioned it too. Love that track! And the Smother Brothers are my new favourite moustachioed strumming singing duo (and are they really siblings?).

Marcy - I've fixed that now. The page obviously remembered your previous naughtiness!

SAS - They are indeed brothers. Check out their Wikipedia via the CP page for more info. I think you can date that video by the moustaches! Just a pity Harry isn't sporting one too.
