Great song; listen to bjanuszewski post for the original version, pretty sure this was the flip side of "The Girl Can't Help It" on the Specialty label...
original was faster wilder hotter and in fact the fastest rock song, used to practice drums to it to not lose full chops and yet keep up at age 12. must have worked, as Joe Morello accepted me at 13
This is a 1976 re-recording of a 1956 Little Richard B-side. Hendrix is on I Don't Know What You've Got (But It's Got Me) - look for the 4:44 version and the alternate take at 4:04 (on The Vee Jay years, part 1/2 on CD). Hendrix is on Dance A Go Go (aka Dancin' All Around The World), also cut in New York in 1965.
Hendrix is probably on You Better Stop and possibly on Friends From The Beginning (Hound Dog; Shakin'; Goin' Home; Money Honey; Goodnight, Irene).
have you sen the price of the explorers soundtrack (cd, new) on amazon? cheapest is about £82. wtf! used to love the instrumental when they're building the ship. think its called construction, sure its on here.
you know, the amoun of people that have posted about this film 'explorers' and i have never even seen the film, lol. I heard of the song through a TV advert in the UK for cravendale milk
at this point i am expecting dolph lundgren to toss a granade from a back of a truck (red scorpion refferance)

What nonsense suggesting that Jimi Hendrix "worked on this song". He was only 13 when this song was released. C'mon.......get real.
