Found a style that sounds like the intro and ending. Cannot find the music in our stores. If anyone has it I sure would like a copy.

My normal listening and playing does not go past the 60's. Who is Chas and Dave?

Chas and Dave were a couple of London cockney entertainers, Chas would thump the ivories and Dave would harmonise and strum guitar. they would play mainly uptempo knees up cockney songs and old music hall numbers.
Like, Knees up mother brown, Any old Iron,
Aby my boy, and many others. I had the pleasure of being in the supporting Band
on one of their gigs, playing sax in a semi-pro quartet many years ago. I think they started playing as pub entertainers. I have
a tape of them that really gets a party going, I cant say that I know the song that you are looking for. Try the UK music sites
on the Web.
