Another encounter I didn't remember, lovely!

Monty Python did a sketch on their TV show about a Eurovision-type song contest which was won by a man singing (or talk-singing) a tune called "Bing Tiddle Diddle Bong". I was thinking of that reading about the Musicker because his tune reminded me of that.

And why do they keep calling it a "mouth-organ"? It's a harmonica!

I think they may actually be slightly different instruments? Like a Tuba and a Sousaphone?
