Charlie Drake - Dont Trim My Wick Birds

Review by Herman Yosef Paryono

"Don't Trim My Wick Birds" is an entertaining and humorous album by the late British comedian Charlie Drake. Released in 1960, it features a collection of quirky songs and sketches that showcase Drake's unique brand of comedy.

The album opens with the title track, a silly tune about a man who doesn't want his candle wick trimmed by a group of birds. The following tracks continue in a similar vein, with Drake delivering witty lyrics and hilarious one-liners.

One standout track is "My Boomerang Won't Come Back," a catchy song about a man who can't seem to throw his boomerang correctly. The song became a hit in the UK and even made it onto the charts in the US.
