Following a question about this is Crackerbox Palace, I posted this link (http://personales.ciudad.com.ar/porsiemprebeatles/Audio.htm) to where DOING THE BONZO DOG can be downloaded.

If anyone knows the complete history of this song, and/or a site where it can be had in excellent quality, please tell us!

I just downloaded the sample. I just read the topic on Crackerbox Palace, hope someone can give more info.

"But the story of The Bonzo Dog is not over. Bonzo fans DO have a sixth album to look forward to. Jim Yoakum is currently working out the logistics for a Bonzo tribute/reunion album, set for a Christmas release: IT WAS A GREAT PARTY UNTIL SOMEBODY FOUND A HAMMER (the title comes from an unreleased Bonzo track). Yoakum has been talking to some great people about the project, such as Pink Floyd's David Gilmour, Wreckless Eric, The Eurythmics' Dave Stewart, Negativeland, Ken Nordine, John Cale. Gene Pitney, Eric Idle, and others. I was lucky enough to hear a demo of the "Doin' The Bonzo Dog" by George Harrison and Jim Capaldi, and it's one of the best post-Beatle songs to come along."
