I've just run this tape- not a complete edition for 7/4/68 sadly, but a sizeable chunk of it- around 25 mins.
The tape starts with Eamonn introducing Lulu and discussing the problems of long-distance dating (Lulu was at the time going out with Davy Jones in the USA). Veteran Hollywood actor(?) Lionel Sanders is also present throughout this chat.
Lulu performs '
The Look Of Love' and '
Thoroughly Modern Millie'
-cut in recording-
Back with boxer Joe Frazier and Spike Milligan joining Lulu and Lionel Sanders. Eamonn 'complains' about Spike's frequent habit of phoning his secretary and dictating long notes to him rather than sending letters! Lulu also says she's received letters from Spike.
Spike says to Lionel Sanders, 'Go on Lionel, take your clothes off, let's have some fun!' Sanders comes back with 'Don't let the necklace fool ya pal!' [he's evidently wearing some vaguely hippy-ish gear.]
Spike virtually takes over interviewing Joe Frazier, asking him what he thinks about Cassius Clay's tactic of never approaching his opponents in the ring, instead making them come to him.
Spike and Lulu discuss the pitfalls of marriage.
Eamonn just has time to thanks his guests before the leader tape ends the recording.
The technical quality is good for a home recording, with none of the 'frame buzz' which usually blights 'mike to the speaker' efforts. Possibly this was done with a direct input to the recorder. A shame the recording isn't complete as Milligan is on particularly good form.
Hope the above is of some interest.
