Uncle Galahad was P.R. Pinnock’s first attempt at musical comedy. In January 2000 he presented a recital of the songs he had written. He hoped this would lead to finding someone interested in writing the book for the show. In this it was successful, but they were unable to secure the rights for the underlying work.

The recital (recorded by Fred Armentrout) featured the following performers:

Galahad Threepwood: P.R. Pinnock*

Sandy Calendar: Allison Batty

Sam Bagshott: Brad Thomas

Veronica Wedge: Leslie Winfield

Tipton Plimsoll: Todd Foster

Dame Daphne Winkworth: Kate Melby

chorus: Batty, Winfield, & Melby

narrator: Jonathan Moliter

piano accompaniment: Tracey Edson

Here are sample songs from the recital:
