Paddy Roberts (songwriter)

John Godfrey Owen "Paddy" Roberts (18 January 1910[1] – 24 August 1975)[2] was a British songwriter and singer who lived in Devon, England having previously been a lawyer and a pilot (serving with the RAF in World War II).

[4] Roberts was five times the winner of an Ivor Novello Award, four for songwriting and one for services to the British Music Industry.

The tracks from Strictly For Grown Ups that are included on The World of Paddy Roberts" are in stereo, leading to the assumption that the whole album was recorded that way (but never issued that way).

Songs for Gay Dogs was issued in stereo for the first time in 2006 when released on CD which indicated that ...But Not in front of the Children was also recorded that way.

The exceptions being Songs For Gay Dogs (Peter Knight), Funny World (Ronnie Aldrich), Live at the Blue Angel (Barry Morgan) and Doctor Dolittle (Cyril Stapleton).
