He could sing as well as paint, sometimes at the same time. Harris’s successful way with a sentimental ballad was crowned in 1969 with his mawkish single Two Little Boys, which remained at the top of the hit parade for several weeks. In what now seems an inconceivable coup, Harris routed stars of the stature of Elvis Presley, Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye, and kept Kenny Rogers’s song Ruby Don’t Take Your Love to Town from the No 1 position.

[20] He won the 1949 Claude Hotchin prize for oil colours with his landscape "On a May Morning, Guildford". [21] By the 1960s Harris had established himself as one of the popular entertainers of the day. When he arrived in Vancouver in 1966 for a Canadian tour he was greeted on the quayside by a 200-strong Girl Guide choir singing Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Sport and was feted as the city’s top nightclub entertainer. By 1968 he had also become the favourite performer in Idi Amin’s Uganda.
