[HEREISMULLEER]

Junglesurfer> where have you been?? lol

[flashandthepan]

Get it?

[littlewolf60]

Aus some !!!!

[gforcepdx]

This song is sooo old and It still makes me smile every time I play it. Finally went out and bought the CD for $18. because it was an import. I blame it all on 70's FM radio.

[Gottglaeubigkeit]

really injoyed this vid

[damnibefamous]

Flash and the Pan certainly is a lady killer against "the machine" ("in the world of turning circles" (hard (and floppy) disc drives.) In an orbit, of the Moon.

[ludo281160]

I have even the first LP 1978! Even the CD....

[ludo281160]

I thought in 1988 I was a Lady Killer, and the girl next to me in the car said to me....You are InSAne, yeh....... Flash and The pan singing this song here in Belgium ...but I was to be her girlfriend and took her to be a Lady Killer. She said...Watch it Watch it.... She was a local DJ, but that was not her cup of tea!!!

If I have mentionned that, we wood be married back then!

These guys are the producers and blood brothers of the guitar players in AC/DC. This is called songwriting.

[TSAllenBRP]

I loved these guys from day one. i used to have that album with all the frisbees being thrown. it was a better than average album for its quality of the band. the big songs on this could not be contained, all of them made it to air play. the album was hit but the follow up record for 1980 "lights in the night" and a steady string of albums from 1979 through to 1984 didn't recieve the radio air play the debute album had enjoyed. The band did make 7 albums. GL finding them... FAP ROCKS!

[Dadio0001]

Great stuff

[DaveEvans256]

Oh i'm sorry, Herman Brood covered this song

[DaveEvans256]

Cover from Herman Brood & the Wild Romance (Netherlands) ?

[libertytoad]

A great song from a vastly under-rated band....

[xPorcelainLolitax]

@libertytoad

Indeed! I can't believe they're this under-rated. I've not heard a single song by them I haven't liked so far (Media Man is an exception). It's insane! o_o

They have fantastic songs.

[maeusesheriff]

OMG FANTASTIC memories!!! Where has the great music gone??? I listened to the best stuff 30 years ago!!!

[gforcepdx]

golden age of pop/rock

[TheJUNGLESURFER]

how good are these guys just amazing

[mp01juve]

@TheJUNGLESURFER yes. i'm from Australia and never heard of them till tonight

[HEREISMULLEER]

@mp01juve lol, where have you been hiding???

[rshawn005]

Ah good stuff

[martinrain312]

the key to the song is the line "Walter Mitty come home". Mitty is the shy guy who leads a boring life but in his daydreams he's a cool James Bond-type.

[Dadio0001]

Still one of my top ten albums

[Dadio0001]

nice!!!

[Kinear1]

George Young, brother of Angus and Malcom Young (AC/DC) What a great Family... Thank´s for your Musik.

[dannym6four]

OMG the memories come flooding in!!

i had forgot this song!

[fibbes1710]

Very, Very, Very GOOOOOOODy !!!!

[larrymo123]

Great record.

[TheCreepyGuyNextdoor]

I used to have one of their albums. Maybe I'm not so creepy after all. heh, heh.

[ludo281160]

Just 1980...Flash and the Pan give their own opinion of a Lady Killer!! Just Fantastic music, That's it! Marvellous...

[onejam1001]

Is it just me or were the 80's a really creative time in music? This is one nobody forgets.

[colemann76]

This is not 80's though, it's late 70's

[steinber]

wow! great memories of this album for me as well  thanks for posting

[damnibefamous]

I wish the front cover art was available for that version of their first album (below the mushroom cloud appears to be Manhatten island, New York. Flash and the Pan has/had "vision")

[jimmyignatowsky]

check out the version of Herman Brood and his Wild Romance from the 1984 album "the Brood".

Brood fan forever!!!!

[HRHQVB]

George & Harry Vanda were the songwriting team behind 60's "Easy Beats". Had UK hit with "Friday on my Mind". Also producers &/or songwriters at "Albert Productions" with Aussie bands like 'The Angels' (Angel City), (early Bon Scott AC/DC) and wrote "Love is in the Air" for John Paul Young (used in movie 'Strictly Ballroom' & I think it was even performed at 2000 Sydney Olympics closing ceremony). Very talented guys.

[timothybender]

A long forgotten gem....I remember this song and the other tunes on this remarkable album. I really digged the songs 'walking in the rain','the man who knew the answer' and 'california'. In 1979 I was a young rocker (a big AC/DC,Sabbath,Aerosmith fan) and this new wave music was being played at the beer parties. What a freakin change of pace to what I was rockin to but it was awesome! damn, they are such great memories!

RIP George

[damnibefamous]

I wish the complete art was available to that version of the front cover of this most excellent album. I think they're trying to cut out the "vision" showed in this album, that it's NYC depicted.

[laurielaugh]

WATCH IT!

WATCH IT!

God what a cool song :)

Did you know George Young (in this band) is the older brother of Angus and Malcolm Young (of my favorite band AC/DC)?

[colemann76]

Yes, i did know.

formerly of The Easybeats as well

[clem5125]

a little rusty

[superdavela1]

Thank you for adding this-it's awesome.

Brings back great memories of old KROQ back in the early 80's.

[labyronie]

this is another vehicle which may appear on the happy jack hyde project, comments, opinion, reactions. bal

[andrewtheelder38]

This is by far the best song on this old eighties long playing album....love it....glad to see it here but the volume is poor.....

[timothybender]

I digged this album too man, I first heard it back in 1979 at the beer parties. I have fond memories of this new wave album. It was great tunes and great times!
