Keynsham (album)

Keynsham (album)

Keynsham is the fourth album by the Bonzo Dog Band, originally released in 1969.

In 2007 the album was re-issued on CD by EMI with 5 bonus tracks. The bonus tracks were not actually performed by the The Bonzo Dog Band, but were from later solo projects performed by individual members of the group.

The album title, like the British town from which it derives its name, is pronounced CANE-shum. The album title is a reference to Horace Batchelor, a football pools predictor who regularly advertised his service on Radio Luxembourg in the early 1960s. He would spell out the town's name carefully and deliberately when giving his contact details, and this became an amusing feature to the many young listeners.
