"In this sale is pretty much every record the Bonzo’s ever made. Like, Tiny Tim and Newley, they are one of the great obsessions of my collecting life. I got to know Viv in the last decade of his life and I feel blessed in that. When I first met Paul McCartney I said, “Stone the Crows! It’s Apollo C. Vermouth!” Which made him laugh. ACV was the name under which he produced “Urban Spaceman.

“I’ve never let my friends down, I’ve never made a boob I’m a glossy magazine. An advert in the tube.”

It’s just one of the most wonderful noises ever created. "
