Description:... When Spike Milligan died in 2002, he left behind one of the most diverse legacies in British entertainment history. His themes ranged from environmental issues to the Second World War, from nostalgia to depression. His prolific output covers some of the most evocative events of the twentieth century, with a passionate honesty that combined lyricism with lunacy. This is a posthumous anthology of his best work.
