Don't suppose you could upload the mp3 of Kitten Curry could you? I had the picture disc many many years ago and used to love that song!! Funny as hell!! Can't find it anywhere!
@Dubconferencedotorg You were 17 around the time I also was. I liked the ... salad album. I had stated then that the Fisher Z would make a great career. I was wrong; one of the few predictions of mine which totally went the wrong way. Which is a pity, as the talent was in place. Friendly, E
This song got good radio airplay in Lima, Peru, around 1984-85.. I automatically assumed it was from the U.S (is this band even known in America?)....Little did I know...Nice song, good summer memories.
I find myself constantly referring back to this era, when music was political, conscience was social and thought was independent. Lyricists like Cy Curnin and John Watts challenged a growing collective banality of greed long before Geldof and Bono saw the commercial gains to be had...
Fisher Z, all songs are great, but *the worker* is the most, beautyfull song, forever in my heart, it is the song for the teens 70/80 and we never forget this sound !!!! G R E A T
This song brings back memories of Summer of 1985 in Lima, muy buena canción y melodía. Cette chanson est belle. Can anyone tell me if this band is german? Alguien sabe si son alemanes? (Ich spreche nicht Deutsche, nur Spanischen und englisch)
I bought this single when it came out - I can't find it in my collection anymore, however, the original vynal single had a train in the middle which just went round and round at 45 rpm - you dont get that sort of tactile input anymore.....
Iemand had een heel mooie clip van dit liedje uit Toppop op deze site gezet, maar die is er plots vanaf gehaald, waarschijnlijk auteursrechten.. :( gelukkig op tijd opgeslagen op flv bestand.
Inderdaad! Ik had hem ook op mijn Hyves profiel staan omdat ik dit een heel goed nummer vind. Maar hij is verwijderd. Onzin natuurlijk, want die opname zou nooit op dvd worden uitgebracht!
Precies niemand die er nadeel aan zou hebben aan die zeldzame beelden. :(
Is er toevallig iemand die hem op MP3 bestand heeft bewaard? Mijn flv bestand is niet zo mooi scherp. Degene die al die oude video-opnames hier op zette heette nlcorp geloof ik, en is nu onvindbaar..
Hi Peter88isbackagain, diese verspielte Version hab ich 1979 oder so mal in einer Disco gehört, war nicht auf der WORDSALAD, wo gab es denn diese Version? Kommt ziemlich gut...
Esta canción se hizo famosa a través del programa DISCO CLUB en canal 7 entre los años 1979 y 1980, no la pasaban por la radio;el video era muy sencillo, el grupo tambien, la musica espectacular.
Sí, esta canción es de esos años 79 y 80 pero sonó fuerte cuando nacía "Z Rock&Pop" en el programa de Juanito Vargas ....Y te aseguro que "Fischer Z" captó muchos seguidores en aquel momento también.........
love this song....my brother has the 7" picture disc....i think there was a video promo for it back in '79....trains full of commuters or something like that....or was i mistaken ?
Thanks for posting up The Worker.Great band, saw them live long ago at the Festival of Fools, Admsterdam, circa 1980. Who's the art work by in the above frame ????? Like it.

Not sure where you are from, but MOT means a certain certificate you need to keep your car on the road. In The Netherlands we have something similar.
