This unusual and very amusing CD features the well matched Alberts, Temperance Seven, and the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band. The song, "Ukelele Lady" stars Peter Sellers. Whereas some of the music is American, The Alberts proclaim, "it may be rubbish, but at least it's English rubbish". Songs are mainly from the 1920s. "On her doorstep last night" also appears on the Music of the 20th Century CD performed there by Jack Payne and his Band (1929). The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band started their career in offbeat trad jazz before branching off into areas of rock, blues, and the just plain wonderfully weird for weird's sake. "You're driving me crazy was a 1960's number one for the Temperance Seven.

OMG, my mum used to bang on and on about the Temperance Seven because she delighted in the fact that there were nine of them ("one over the eight" is, apparently, old peoples' slang for being really drunk!)
Many thanks!
Thanks for this post and that link in the comments.
I've got a sneaking suspicion The Alberts did some of the incidental music in the Goon Show.
The bits I'm thinking of are played in as FX/Grams and usually feature a 'badly' played piano.

Y'know Dave, we do keep bumping into each other...
