The Three Monarchs

The Three Monarchs - England (1)

The Monarchs were formed in 1946 by Eric Yorke (d. 1997) and Les Henry (born Henry Leslie, and known on stage as "Cedric"; 1920–2007), along with Jimmy Prescott and Johnny Crowe. Eric Yorke had begun performing in his teens, and in 1936 featured as "The Harmonica Kid" on Carroll Levis' talent shows, on radio and on tour. Les Henry won solo harmonica championships and had his own award-winning harmonica group before touring in the Second World War with ENSA. He turned down an offer from Harry Secombe and Spike Milligan to help form their new comedy group - who became The Goons - in order to form the Monarchs at the end of the war.
