[HaHaHamHammer]

"Sole singer"? Did he sing to fish or something?

[666armynofx]

fanny xDDD

[Poopaloo55]

Haha...reminds me of the first party where there were BOYS allowed...and no parents (well, not in the same room anyway lol!!) I don't suppose they realised this song was on the record player!

[neally76]

A Boots and Braces clasic

[djphilmore]

ah, roots of the 69 movement. doesn't get any better. wish i could've been in those dancehalls but i guess stomping through the US suburbs will have to do for now. where are the Cali Skins at?

[lauren10965]

[sidacboilerhouse]

The trouble this track caused at our youth club in 1969,hahahahahahahahaha.Good track though.

[julia71127]

we all liked this back in the day cos it was rude and got banned....none of us in them days understood it properly though...lol

[Pemlola]

Hahar! This song is making me smirk :>

[DJDESTINYPRESENTS]

i lost my virginity to this tune :)

[gregbest90]

@DJDESTINYPRESENTS LMAO, making me choke on my damn lunch now. Now that musta been something...

[2SugarsPleeze]

LOVE IT!

[heroknaderi]

I love wet dreams feels so good heehee.

[labworth]

All time favourite records (Reggae or not). My brother bought this when it first came out, on holiday in Wales if I remember correctly. Obviously banned by radio (and parents) so we played it whenever we could. Fantastic.

[davedoom60]

MAX told the BBC it was about a camping trip in the wind+rain with his girl. She had to lie down on the tarpaulin while he pushed the tent pole up. The BBC did not believe him. They banned WET DREAM :::::

IT IMMEDIATELY WENT TO NUMBER ONE for ages and ages. MAX still has the TENT POLE and the BBC owe him an apology + a new TENT !!!!!!!! [DO NOT MISS the last 2 words on the fade-out] ps for those not in UK :::"THE BBC" is........ like The Queen with an aerial stuck on her head

[Scoobyschwarzter]

The misreable fucker who ran our Church Youth Club not only banned this being played on the record player but also stamped on the record till it was in a million pieces.........Me and my girlfirend simply went next door into the church and we had a shag on the alter as recompense

[321scully]

@Scoobyschwarzter I bet you couldn't do it now :)

[bagupbob]

smokin the green great times

[MrPolishxD]

I remember listening to this some years ago...When I had first wet dreams, haha ;) Beautyful times :D

[TheDitsychick]

Awwwww takes me back this, remember it being played full blast from house near my nans and loved the tune, lyrics always gave me the giggles ha ha

[kennymac520]

[loron21]

used to beg me dad to put on the reel to reel when he went out shopping .. my sister was left in charge and always turned it off when this song came on til found out how to turn it back on the sound of a gang of us kids singing this outside the house while the song played full blast is sommat i will never forget or the cuff up the ear when our dad came back unexpected and caught us singing it. he never lived it down with the neighbours lol

[436612AA]

@loron21

Great story :)

[thfcyidz]

[xxloulouxx1]

I love this tune so muchhhh . xxxxxxx big up old reggae

[MrLeslieG]

Forbidden on BBC's radio then but high rated in UK- charts

[bottleblondieuk67]

mortified when i first discovered this in my Dad's vinyl collection - not cos I found it, but cos I found it n played it, the 6 year old kid I was babysitting for at the time memorised the whole song - nothing more disconcerting than hearing a 6 year old singing at the top her voice "lie down girl let me push it up" needless to say she didn't come to long term harm!!!!! phew

[R477U]

Yo, i thought ma dad was joking when he said their was a song with the lyrics 'Lie down girl let me push it up' ahahahaha proved me wrong lol.

[R477U]

Yo, i thought ma dad was joking when he said their was a song with the lyrics 'Lie down girl let me push it up' ahahahaha

Cheers

[L0wnyus]

@TrojanSkinhead94 how comes you blocked me?

[insatiablezc]

This song always reminds me of my dad

[omega1956]

This used to get played at a Teenagers Disco in York called "The Heartbeat" back in the late 60`s early 70`s my mate tried to convince a girl that it was about a bloke telling his girlfriend that it was easier if she rested while he pushed their tandem up a hill...she did`nt believe him, but 10 out of 10 for imagination !

[snoopz1220011]

@omega1956 my dad used to play this and tell me it was about a guy putting a pillow in a hole in the roof whenit was raining lol

[cutsville]

Superb tune, very funny story about your Dad sbasey, I too used to deliver the papers to buy records.

My Dad tried to put his foot through my Brother's snare drum & almost broke his ankle, very funny :-D

[JOSHWF2]

[rockon1960]

My brother bought this when it came out - and our mum went MENTAL!

[squibz1985]

[alicebinns]

@TrueBritishStyle and me!

[Rogue257]

hahaha sbasey!!!

[cdrom5]

LOL Max refuted the sexual innuendo of the lyrics claiming ' wet Dream' was just about a leaky roof ?!?

[charliecooper1971]

she would not lie down man,so had to give here a slap

[Nozzernomates]

Reggae classic!

[ankleshigh]

i never thought i would hear this again,turn back the clock,if only.

[TheEmcardle]

memories of  a girl that bought this for me

[sistersnogger]

I remember when this came out my mate's big sis bought it and we used to listen to it illicitly as it was soooo rude (and banned by Aunty Beeb - which made it even more attractive...) So pleased to have found it on YouTube. Marvy....Lovin ya Max X

[daroyalgeneral]

I so use to punch da fuck outta this tune in-a jukebox a trouble me use to get in-a & I still used to punch it sameway

[sbasey]

I spent my paper round money on this and my dad cut his fingers breaking it up.

[leicmick]

@sbasey HAHAHA :)

[tomjarvisify]

@sbasey

Thats hilarious, My dads friend has this and has promised this as part of his collection in his Will. Keep the vinyl alive!

[spadge321]

that sounds like a great lyric bro,,, thanks,, tom,,

[FluidityFreak]

@sbasey That's a shocking story! I bet you were gutted. A terrible way for a piece of vinyl to die. Sounds like it went out fighting though.

[TerraFyah]

@sbasey haha made me chuckle.. One Love ♥

[regularguytoo]

@sbasey I was 15 and had a dansette in my bedroom , and this was on for a week 'til my sister told my dad what it was about !!! he smashed it to frigging bits . I never forgave either of 'em

[drgigglesdoescocaine]

@sbasey  what kind was it?

[JimRudman]

@sbasey My dad would have too - if he had heard it LOL (and all the Judge Dread stuff I was playing !)

[firefly5339]

@sbasey i hid my copy



[lynda1933]

loved this song played it over and over again i was about 7 years old then

[nug39]

my dad went made when i played this on his old gramphone in the 60's

[djax22]

Great song !

[staceyloveme1]

wooo hehe woohoo!

[jonathon301292]

I've actually got this on a 45 somewhere in my loft. Brilliant. Played it to my 17 year old son and he walked out the room. LOL

[modelearth]

@jonathon301292 im 18 and i love it.

[idontliketrees]

@jonathon301292 songs are different when your parents show them to you

[noproblem53]

When I was 16 I went to a club in Preston called Stax --this is what they played --glad I grew out of it--I listened tonight because of nostalgia -wish I hadn't bothered cos its crap

[MisterBlue55]

I haven't heard this since I was at school in 1969 when I was 14. My experience sounds like stebear58 except I was in Battersea in London. Did anyone else go to Battersea County School at that time? We used to play all the Trojan records in our house room during the lunch break. I tried to do the dances that the black girls used to do but all I got was stich!! They were fab!!!

[iangordoncraig]

Okay we all had silly grins about the lyric all those years ago. But just listen to the SOUND of this record. AWESOME!

[deakondipper]

ska bar, tonbridge dank, dillies in southborough......... fuck me they were the days!!

[miamiwax]

this sounds just like lee perry "people funnny boy"

[kawikahob1]

WHERE is Marxi Romeo, I mean his physical body. This rasta is getting old but his music doesn't......where is he? Do you recall his music title 'Stealing ....in the name of the Lord..." It saved a pastor and me too!

[rashneesh]

push it up push it up!!!!

[Pro100Bond]

6 человек случайно промахнулось мимо кнопки "like"...

[stebear58]

I was 11 years old when this was out in 1969 and when a guy played this song and Big Five by Prince Buster at school in the lunch hour in the Music room. I just had to have them so ask friend to get me the 2 45 from HMV in Manchester and i could only play the 2 45 when my mum and dad was out of the house. in them days we had Blue spot (Blaupunkt) the sound was fab for reggae records

[patsyod]

@stebear58

I was an 18 year-old white guy in a record shop in the middle of Brixton, well into blue beat (reggae). Used to stand in there listening to the first few bars so I could recognise the music and buy the record. All was good back then, or maybe the old time goggles have misted things, i'd like to think not.

[hardenable]

nice one like i was 14 again lol

[scruff241]

this song has had more air time at fair grounds around the uk,it was always being played then and still is now...it has a lot of past fond memories 4 me

[CountessLyz666]

haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa love it :)

[nug39]

my dad was mad when he heard me listening to this in 1969

[povesiko]

sweet!!!

[VANYO21]

"Give the crumpet to big foot joe, give the fanny to me" lol

[staceyloveme1]

This song is jokes!

Hello tanyaotk all the information you need is on this Wiki I trust you enjoy this as this was band by the BBC Say hello to your mum she has good taste

[nicistyx]

[tanyaotk]

love this song thank you for posting.

Mum as this on a single,I play it at least once a week and so supprised to find it on youtube.

Mum tells me it was a very popular song in the late sixties in disco's and clubs.

I will check the label but think the one she as is around 1968 and cost less than a pound.If anyone can give additional info about the actual record release date,Max romeo or the song please do so i would love to hear from you.

[raff32]

A friend of mine did a version of this with Max called a wet scene. He went to JA to buy records and stayed with bunny lee. he wanted to do some tracks and Bunny introduced him to Max and they cut the record.

[child1959]

Reminds me of the Queens Hall Indoor Fair Leeds.

[smokey2766]

What a classic. Pukka!!!!!!!

[roymeboy0]

I bought this single in 1975..it cost a fiver!!! and i was only earning £18.00 a week.

Awesome song, though the lyrics are a bit questionable. :P

[FadahRon]

@ObsTheGreat This tame compared to what's goin on now!!

[upstandingmale]

I still have the single... it was banned from the BBC and most places which made it quite collectable before online downloading .. I hope he made as much out of this as he gave so many reggae fans pleasure.
