The Scaffold

The Scaffold were a comedy and musical trio from Liverpool, England that formed in the 1960s. The group consisted of Roger McGough, John Gorman, and Mike McGear (whose real name is Peter Michael McCartney - yes, he's Paul McCartney's younger brother!). They were known for their quirky, humorous songs and poetry performances.

The Scaffold had a few hit singles in the UK, with their biggest success coming from the 1968 Christmas number one "Lily the Pink." They also had success with songs like "Thank U Very Much" and "Liverpool Lou." The group disbanded in the early 1970s but has occasionally reunited for special performances. Their blend of comedy, poetry, and catchy tunes made them a unique act in the British music scene of the 1960s.
