The Stripper
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"The Stripper" is a piece of instrumental music composed by David Rose and released in 1962. It evinces a jazz influence, and evokes the feel of music used to accompany striptease artists.
The piece features in the films Slap Shot, Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit and The Full Monty. It was also famously used in a parody by British comedy duo Morecambe and Wise, where they danced to the tune while making breakfast.
The song reached number one on Billboard magazine's Pop Singles and Adult Contemporary charts in 1962.
