'..the news that Baritone Richard Suart has produced an account of
Ko-Ko's Little Lists will be music to your ears. Beginning with a
brief history of The Mikado, this hearty collaboration focuses on
the way contemporary politics and society are freshly lampooned in
each season's book' - Sunday Telegraph Richard Suart, heir to the
great Gilbert and Sullivan singers of the past, has made the role
of KoKo, Lord High Executioner, his own. Over the last 20 years his
topical version of the Little List song has become a focus of
audience expectation and hilarity. In this book, he looks back over
the Lists that have raised such laughter at the Coliseum and at the
history of this immensely malleable song, taking in previous
performers such as George Grossmith, Martyn Green, Groucho Marx,
Frankie Howerd and Eric Idle -not to mention poets as varied as
John Hollander and Tim Rice. Illustrated with 56 colour and 45 b/w
illustrations, many never previously reproduced, this is a
delightful biography of one of the most entertaining songs in the
English language.
