The great eccentric and raconteur Vivian Stanshall performs music pieces and talks to us about his early years leading up to his time in The Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band. Following Stanshall death, this program was repeated and repackaged as 'Diamond Geezer' with a tribute at the beginning from John Peel.
Vivian Stanshall was an English singer-songwriter, musician, author, poet and wit, best known for his work with the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band, for his exploration of the British upper classes in Sir Henry at Rawlinson End (as a radio series for John Peel, as an audio recording, as a book and as a film), and for acting as Master of Ceremonies on Mike Oldfield's album Tubular Bells.
