Tom Foy is famous for his whimsical style of North Country Humour. Famed as "The Yorkshire Lad" he made a particular name for himself in sketches such as "First Time that I come up to London" and "Tom Foy and his Donkey" and as a pantomime dame. Interesting today for their social history as much as the humour, his recordings span the period 1911 - 1916. A full CD of 23 tracks.
