@misterkurdt You are wrong. They gave the song some spunk and balls and turned it into something 5000 times better than the original. They gave it the erection it deserved.
so this was 1982? this tune always reminds me of the sandra bullock "love potion number nine" movie, which i think was her first leading role. i just looked it up, 1992.
Jon Deverill has an amazing metal voice,.. i remember him in persian Risk before he joined the Tygers,.. Risk had a great single called Ridin High which is well worth trying to find.
I love Iron Maiden and decided to listen to some other NWOBHM bands since I had listened to so few. I heard of the band so I figured I'd listen to a track and they fucking rock!!!
thats what happened to me as well, I liked Iron Maiden and decided to listen to some other NWOBHM bands and I love all the other bands of that era. theres certainly no other sound like the NWOBHM.
These guys got screwed by their record company. If their record label didn't think they could produce hits on their own. They should have hired a producer who could get it done, instead of asking them to cover another song after this cover was successful and ultimately alienating the band. These guys aren't Quiet Riot whose only hits were covers. The talent was there to keep this band going throughout the 80's.
Wow!!!! amazing upload, if u dont know this song belong to DIO and the red carpets, from 1974!!! this is a tribute for the most important frontman and influence guide to many vocalist. DIO.
@faustoj26a hehejhehje you are wrong dude, it was recorded by dio after the redcaps (not carpets) in 64 by ronnie dio and the prophets, and its a cover! the original song is from 59 from the CLOVERS... (they didn't writte it!)
iwas working at b&q about 6 years ago when who got a job there. non other than robb wier.he was a really nice bloke talked to him 4 ages and he gave me a cd he done with tygers girlschool and oliver dawson saxon.told us about going on nevermind the buzzcocks great bloke great band up the north east!!!
Great to see the Sykes version but it's still a total shit song the Tygers should've never bothered to cover. Ah, record company pressures......'The Cage' was the beginning of the end.
Charles Follen McKim Maloney was the man who chemically engineered the original 'Love Potion Number 9'. It proved to be so potent a potion that in the wrong hands it could prove dangerous. The doctor eventually destroyed the formula and all existing stocks of the potion. Brad Pitt once boasted of having some love potion no 9, on investigation it was discovered that he actually had love potion no 8. Of which Maloney said "it is useless and brought me out in a rash, it does attract flies though"!
This is an interesting version of this classic song! It has been written that Dr. Charles Follen McKim Maloney's Love Potion number 9 was almost used by North Korean communists for nefarious purposes, however, the great doctor destroyed his supply and his formula before they could get hold of it.
I took my troubles down to Madame Rue You know that gypsy with the gold-capped tooth She's got a pad down on Thirty-Fourth and Vine Sellin' little bottles of Love Potion Number Nine I told her that I was a flop with chics I've been this way since 1956 She looked at my palm and she made a magic sign She said "What you need is Love Potion Number Nine"
The NWOBHM Bands that never really made it , didn't because they were basically shite!!!
