Jeeves and Bertie on vinyl

I thought some people might be interested to know that a record collector's blog has posted scans of, and MP3s of, the theme to the 1960s TV  show "The World of Wooster" here and here.

Both sides are rather splendid!

Ooh, very cool. I was so heartbroken to find out most of those episodes have been destroyed. I know there are still two of them out there, but I haven't been able to find them yet.

I read in Robert McCrum's biography of Wodehouse that P. G. liked Dennis Price as Jeeves, but wasn't too thrilled with Ian Carmichael as Bertie. I wonder what he would have thought of Fry and Laurie in the roles.
