''We All Had Doctors' Papers'' is a live album by Welsh comedian and singer Max Boyce, first issued in 1975 and recorded at Pontarddulais Rugby Club. It was his fourth album release and followed his break through recording ''Live at Treorchy''. The album contains a mixture of comedic and traditional songs, along with Boyce's interactions with the crowd. Two songs on the album, ''Sospan Fach'' and ''Ar Lan y Môr'', are in the Welsh language. It is the only comedy album to have topped the UK Albums Chart. ==Album== ''We All Had Doctors' Papers'' is a live recording similar to Boyce's recording of the previous year ''Live at Treorchy''. Just as ''Live at Treorchy'' was recorded at the town's local rugby club, Boyce continued his connection with the sport of rugby union by recording ''We All Had Doctors' Papers'' at Pontarddulais Rugby Club. The album was recorded in one take over one night. The album title comes from the song ''9-3'' which appeared on ''Live at Treorchy''. Celebrating Llanelli RFC's 1972 win over New Zealand, the lyrics of the fourth verse follow; ''But we all had doctors' papers, and they all said just the same, that we all had Scarlet Fever, and we caught it at the game''. Boyce, whose comedic songs are now linked to the sport of rugby union, included four rugby songs, ''I Gave My Love A Debenture'', ''Deck of Cards'', ''The Devil's Marking Me'' and ''Pontypool Front Row'', the later of which celebrates the Wales and British Lions trio of Graham Price, Bobby Windsor and Charlie Faulkner. Of the songs on the album ''Sospan Fach'' and ''Ar Lan y Môr'' are both traditional Welsh folk songs, while ''Swansea Town'' is written by Swansea songwriter and composer, John M. Davies; the rest are original works by Boyce. The album cover and reverse is drawn by Welsh cartoonist Gren, who became the first cartoonist to receive a gold disc from the record company EMI. The cover shows a crowded and detailed rugby international match at the Cardiff Arms Park, hidden in the crowd are several notable Welsh sportspeople and celebrities, such as comedian Tommy Cooper.
