I heard him being interviewed by Barry Scott a few years ago. He said that they formed the group to do soul music "like Sam & Dave and all that good stuff". Scott seemed a little surprised, asking "how did you get from Sam & Dave to this?" or something like that, as if someone had given Sam & Dave a little LSD. However he got there, it worked. Even when I was in third grade, it was great to hear an eclectic record like this on the radio; nothing else like it!
My God, GB still has it! Haven't heard this tune for quite a while, but I never forgot it! Gonna save this one & the original to my Favorites......already have the CD. Thanks You-Tube!
I remember loosing a little green bag on the track of the old CB&Q in Colorado Springs. It was my only little green bag, and I was not headed home for another month. I had forgot that I was not crazy about going across Cache Le Poudre on the track(s). Sure enough there on the trail was my little green bag. I went back to the crash pad and lost my mind after supper time.LOL Great old song. I love these older songs with clean guitar work through a tube amp. I gave up on green bags though.
@HATUEYSYBONEY, You are so wrong, I agree with MusclesfromB. At 1:08 "You say his right is your left", Wrong. But notice , his Right hand is raised when he say's" look to the Left" and vice versa. It appears you and George smoked out of the same bag !
Yep, he's Dutch allright. But his father was Italian. Explains the temperament in his voice. Thanks George! songs that remind of of some good old days.

I think season 18 part 2 or 3. It was about Bart as jazz drummer. He broke Lisa´s dream because she wants to be a famous jazz player. So Lisa started look after animals and when she went with lot of animals on the street then played this song :).. :D
george baker is from the netherlands this is his best nummer , he is the only preformer from netherlands that doesnt fuck with the effects so it sounds good live is just as good as on cd
1:08 he says "jumpin to the left" and he puts up the right arm... "turn to the right" and he puts up the left arm.... he's the best! I love this song.
hello I think that there is no change in the sound from when little green bag was first released . sounds wonderful. I remember seeing him in concert and wow he was just as great back then . you still have it george baker and you will never lose it . I have every album and single you put out and love them all equally. all the best and I hope to see some stuff in the record shops soon .
My theory of his directionproblem is that he's so used to point in that way from all the live performances. To make it left and right for the whole croud ;)
