What was it called

According to Ralph Reader himself - '"Riding Along on the Crest of a Wave" became the "Gang Show" anthem'. The TITLE of the first ever Gang Show in the West End was 'The Gang's all here' - no doubt there would have been an opening number with the same title.

tanith you are right, it was from It Ain't Half Hot. I was getting muddled up with the gangs.

That`s brought back some memories, I used to really look forward to the annual Gang Show on TV, Ralph Reader, take a big bow!

I don't remember the show but was the song 'Ging gang goolie...'

Doesn't it?

Riding along on the Crest of a Wave was definately the Gang Show theme I remember it well...

bit of history here...http://www.angelfire.com/hi2/glasgowgangshow/ralphhistory.html

Are you thinking of 'It Ain't Half Hot Mum', 'meet the gang cos the boys are here' , was the first line of that tune..

Ah, that's why it rang a bell then. Thanks.

The Gang Show had that as its theme song...

Don't think it was 'Crest of a Wave', though thanks for the suggestion. Can't help feeling it was something like 'The Gang's all Here' but could be wrong....

Was it 'On the crest of a wave'....don't remember! Looked on wikipedia
