You captured the ambience, the sweet smell of Burgers and onions. The scented air of Candyfloss and the fragrance of Fish and chips. Ah, Blackpool ! Thanks for this. ( You can always cross the road and look out to sea !! )
Ahhh, this takes me back. I remember the first time I heard this on the Beat The Carrott LP. I think it was a song Jasper Carrott did on stage for the audience after recording the Beat The Carrott TV show for LWT. They recorded it and so it was added as a bonus track on the album. It would have been a bit too rude for TV which is probably why it wasn't recorded as part of the show, but I think it would have been nice if they had added it onto the DVD. I still have all the old Jasper Carrott albums. I have the Beat The Carrott TV show on DVD too. An early 80's TV classic.
Great laugh! And SO true as I remember how young guys get lost in booze.. Cheers mate! The very amazing Carrott had us in stitches way back then - and still does!
Yeah Jaspa is the only person from Brum with a sense of humour. The rest of us are bereft of wit and jocularity so prevalent elsewhere. We don't even laugh at Jaspa's jokes. Although a man from Hall Green reputedly sniggered at the Mole sketch, but the stifled guffaw was later diagnosed as being the result of an aneurism. He made a full recovery, but sadly his wife died of shock at such an outburst of jollity.
Hilarious, and a very imaginative parody. Gives the impression of a handful or louts who are out to have a good time but evidently don't mean harm and are clearly not menacing. Compared with the original which portrays a utopian life!!!!
0:57 - although out of focus, pretty sure thats Hastings seafront, the groynes and 'bottle alley' walkway give it away :) also thanks for the upload, never heard this before, made me laugh, but you can tell its a song of its time with the references to drink driving (attitudes were different back then.. thankfully not so now !)
It brings back memories of been I was reading a Jasper carrott book on the bus many many years ago, no wonder I had a seat to myself, I must of sounded like a demented nutter laughing out loud..
And a lovely bloke to boot as well. I used to wash dishes at the restaurant he bout around the corner from my house as a kid. Completely genuine feller, funny as anything but naturally so... It was never like he was "trying gags out" on us. Of course I never really understood what "Vinyl Vera" was in those days but I'm better read now :)
I played golf with Jasper Carrot in Menorca, where he used to host an annual tournament. Somebody else won the tournament and Jasper, as he grudgingly presented the glass trophy to the bloak, dropped it smashing on the floor. He was a nasty bugger!
Ruddy hilarious.Reminds me of a few day-trips I've taken in my younger days,tho' maybe without the gang-bang under the Pier bit,haha.It's a real pity we don't see Jasper Carrott on the box anymore.
A great example of alternative lyrics to a slightly cheesy, but basically good, song by Fiddler's Dram. Jasper Carrot can be very funny, and this is a good example of him at his best.
I've been listening and watching Jasper for years. If any of you remember the sketch about his dog Biffa, it's one of the funniest things I've ever heard.
lol your very welcome.... i came across it when i got bored on imeem and so typed in jasper carrot (not sure how to spell it) and this came up... i asked dad to get it for me and he did ^_^ and so i did this... i thinkthis one is the most popular video i have done, mainly as it's a classic
@putty1994 awwww thanks XD i'm trying to come up with more amv type videos... though i do want to do another 30 seconds to mars vid but need to find a new programme for editing... WMM has decided to update itself and become crap!
@ryker012 he got the mp3 for me in order to put it on the video... like when my ex gave me an mp3 on other videos i'd put him on there under "thanks for my brilliant bf for the music" just a way to say thanks in case they watched it really
well this is the full version on this song. i used windows movie maker, i googled pictures and imported them then make a title and credits and put them in order speeding the pics up or slowing them down it was simple enough
@Bruceeddie01 Not quite sure but it shouldn't take long to work it out??? Play the song a couple of times to get it in your head, then have a go on the guitar, see can you work it out?
In reply to john paul dixon there . NO you don't I think he has retired from the comedian side of his career , but you will still see him on 38 or 46 channel at night on golden balls from about 2008 or thereabouts , regards Pat .
well it's implying sex.... there are some people still with innocence and who are like 5 and don't know about it yet... ok this might sound rude but in a way... think
I think this should be Britain's 2023 Eurovision entry
and/or the national anthem
That would open the judges eyes (GIGGLE)😅
What can you say. Jasper is a legend and the song is a fantastic remake of an already brilliant tune.
Jasper is a British comedy legend in my opinion 😄
I had totally forgotten about this. Effing brilliant and Vinyl Vera will now stay in my head. Love it!!!
You captured the ambience, the sweet smell of Burgers and onions. The scented air of Candyfloss and the fragrance of Fish and chips. Ah, Blackpool !
Thanks for this. ( You can always cross the road and look out to sea !! )
Those were the days. When people merely urinated in public in #Blackpool rather than shooting up & stabbing each other.
Ahhh, this takes me back. I remember the first time I heard this on the Beat The Carrott LP.

Absolutely love listening to this. A couple of months ago I acquired the cassette of the album this comes off of.
Great laugh! And SO true as I remember how young guys get lost in booze.. Cheers mate! The very amazing Carrott had us in stitches way back then - and still does!
Hilarious! I've just heard it again for the first time in years; my cat thinks I'm totally mad sitting here laughing out loud to myself
Julia MacGregor
To be honest I'm sure most cats think their owner is mad I know ours do.
Carrott was good.
He told good stories and told them well. He was very funny...
For a Brummie!
Yeah Jaspa is the only person from Brum with a sense of humour.

Classic carrott, the funniest man ever....
Fond memories of a work's weekend trip to Blackpool in '70. 7am coach departure, climbing over the crates to get to your seat
It brings back memories of been I was reading a Jasper carrott book on the bus many many years ago, no wonder I had a seat to myself, I must of sounded like a demented nutter laughing out loud..
Does the nutter on the bus always sit next to you? ...........
When you're on the bus
And the nutter gets on the bus
Does the nutter ever sit next to you?
And a lovely bloke to boot as well. I used to wash dishes at the restaurant he bout around the corner from my house as a kid. Completely genuine feller, funny as anything but naturally so... It was never like he was "trying gags out" on us.
Of course I never really understood what "Vinyl Vera" was in those days but I'm better read now :)
Did Biffer ever show up?
@@JohnSmithShields Course he did. Walking backwards wagging his head
@@DaveDave65 should have got a lawn mower out.
"We spent our money on chips and bingo"
Putting those together makes you ask what sort of chips they were!
I played golf with Jasper Carrot in Menorca, where he used to host an annual tournament. Somebody else won the tournament and Jasper, as he grudgingly presented the glass trophy to the bloak, dropped it smashing on the floor. He was a nasty bugger!

I've always liked Jasper Carrot but I'd never heard this before....it was hysterically funny and for a first time video it was very good keep it up
for a first timer this video montage is absolutely brilliant. Well done!! Keep up the good work.
unicorn star in the emerald isle
A great example of alternative lyrics to a slightly cheesy, but basically good, song by Fiddler's Dram. Jasper Carrot can be very funny, and this is a good example of him at his best.
Jasper Carrott deserves a Knight hood
Superb. Never heard this one before.
Can I say is that was so funny and a VERY GOOD VIDEO, I enjoyed that as I have been to Blackpool about 4 times now.
I'll never forget the first time I heard this, I was crying with laughter. I love this and its very true of Blackpool too lol
Yea, we all shag blow-up dolls under the pier here :)
Enjoyed it immensely, great job
The rain came down is pretty accurate for Blackpool
Sidney the punk lost a chunk ..... Vinly Vera- I still use that phrase lol Vinly Vera lol. Good memories in the early 80’s
this is a brilliant version of a brilliant tune
It's a great video. My cats said "miaow" and ran off but I've shared it with all my friends!
glad you like it all... i only really saw one other clip of this song and as dad had the song i thought why not share to the world lol
Have you got the other clip
Good one Jasper, he is a national treasure 5*****
Ohh. Not heard that for years!
Sums up our pub coach trips there 50yrs ago!!!
lmao i remember this when it was 1st on the telly in carrots confidential
Quality, Jasper Carrot is brilliant!
I've been listening and watching Jasper for years. If any of you remember the sketch about his dog Biffa, it's one of the funniest things I've ever heard.
2 people went to Blackburn by mistake and had an even worse time.
I loved watching Jasper Carrot, he had me in tears laughing, him and Billy Connolly, it's a shame that aren't still around on the comedy circuit.
Sounds like a brilliant day out :-D
Brum's finest - Love him! Great post, thanks Jennifer Voisey :)
Great song that conjures up images of a right piss up.
@caitlinwonga not my song... a comedian called jasper carrot wrote it... wanna complain? complain to him i just made a video...
lol your very welcome.... i came across it when i got bored on imeem and so typed in jasper carrot (not sure how to spell it) and this came up... i asked dad to get it for me and he did ^_^ and so i did this... i thinkthis one is the most popular video i have done, mainly as it's a classic
Is there actually a video of him singing this on stage
Been to Blackpool many times. Still not found vinyl Vera.
I just about missed this the first time round!
Brilliant! I love it!
Absolutely hilarious laughed throughout & now have jaw😂
Blackpool is probably the classiest place in UK; full of gentlemen and beautiful, articulate ladies......
Only in the Winter Gardens when the ballroom competitions are on (or the Tower Ballroom when Strictly is there)....
You must be mental 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is absolutely hilarious love this
I love this, Jasper is Brilliant
That's the Rising Sun in Thame! I spent many a evening there in the 90's.
@putty1994 you're welcome :D I know this was put up like 9 months ago but i've been so busy with uni its unbelievable!!!
well done, good vid! :)
@putty1994 awwww thanks XD i'm trying to come up with more amv type videos... though i do want to do another 30 seconds to mars vid but need to find a new programme for editing... WMM has decided to update itself and become crap!
Hillarious stuff! Fantastic Work +10
yep me too, I just gotta learn to play this.....only " day trip to Weston "......and the pier burned down !
Funny as fuck as a 8 year old when I heard this ,still funny as a 50 year old
Thanks dad ,jasper still as funny as fuck
@ryker012 he got the mp3 for me in order to put it on the video... like when my ex gave me an mp3 on other videos i'd put him on there under "thanks for my brilliant bf for the music" just a way to say thanks in case they watched it really
This isn't crap at all! Carrott Rules!
Great visuals for the song.
Proper comedy - unlike the anodyne woke cr*p that's inflicted on us now.
Pure genius! I can't believe some idiots misunderstood the thanks.
UP the Villa ehh Jasp
I thought your video was good! Very funny. Me and hubby enjoyed it immensely.
Bloody hilarious!
I love Jasper!!!
well this is the full version on this song.
i used windows movie maker, i googled pictures and imported them then make a title and credits and put them in order speeding the pics up or slowing them down it was simple enough
Fantastic I herd this on tape cassette years ago and I still new most of the words ..
Battom cock is another Fantastic song
Great laugh! And SO true as I remember how young guys get lost in booze.. Cheers mate!
Every time I went to Blackpool the rain came down.
We live here and the rain comes down most days. So don't go thinking we saved it just for you!
sounds pretty accuate. Get pissed, random acts of violence and pass out in a crap b&b. Sounds like Blackpool to me
PUT CARROTT BACK ON THE TV
thank you, carrott rules
@Bruceeddie01 Not quite sure but it shouldn't take long to work it out??? Play the song a couple of times to get it in your head, then have a go on the guitar, see can you work it out?
Brilliant.
you have it already installed, it comes with windows, look on you tollbar or something, i have a shortcut on my desktop
Not at all rude...just brilliant!
amazing!!
And they won't know what that verse is about, so they won't laugh at it or remember it.
I’d love to know what chords he plays so I can learn this for myself 😂
look up Day Trip to Bangor - same tune.
thank you all for the kind comments
Gr8 song, rude, but funny, good old vinyl Vera aay!
it doesn't record, if you put that tape on your computer and then imprt that video it'll go onto wmm
Brilliant

HA ha nice one jasper never heard you sing before or never heard of this song before .

In reply to john paul dixon there . NO you don't I think he has retired from the comedian side of his career , but you will still see him on 38 or 46 channel at night on golden balls from about 2008 or thereabouts , regards Pat .
yeah, glad u all like
well it's implying sex.... there are some people still with innocence and who are like 5 and don't know about it yet... ok this might sound rude but in a way... think
