Lenny Bronze

Successful English rock and roll singer just mentioned in the "So Little Time" skit from Peter Sellers' 1959 Songs for Swinging Sellers album.

The skit is an interview with manipulative, overbearing rock manager Major Rafe Ralph, a parody of real English rock manager Larry Parnes, with a military rank like Elvis' manager Colonel Parker. Parnes groomed, controlled, and gave his acts stage names, like Billy Fury and Lance Fortune.

Also mentioned in the intro are several of Ralph's other successful acts: Clint Thigh, Matt Lust, The Fleshpots, The Muckrakers. The interview focuses on one of the Major's new up and comers, Twit Conway.
