What makes this version so naff is not the clothes & hairstyles (it was 1975, after all), but the "La La La" vocals.
This song has words (check out Gigliola Cinquetti's version), so why did the choir not sing them?

OMFG! I'd forgotten how the Top of the Pops Orchestra used to ruin any decent tune. I can't remember why they had to use them - some union thing or something
-
where did they get those shirt and tie combo,s from, horrible.

@j6ehobu top of the pops, new music show basically.

Bring back "wacca wacca" guitar playing!

@ohhgag You have a good memory, that's all I can say. He did, but he never pressed it on an album. The TJB did a single of El Bimbo near the end of their tenure at A&M. You can find this on the 45 RPM, A&M 1714-S. That seems to be a rather rare record.

Kinda funky John Barry :D

Earthbound's hotel theme is almost an "exact" copy of this song.
-
the koopa beach theme from mario kart sounds like a total rip off of this.
"PROCTOR!" Heh,Blue Oyster Bar Music.

Ahmad zahir sand Tanha Shodam in 1971, then this french band plagerised it and made recorded this album in 1974!!!! they have to pay the overdue royalties to the Zahir family...dont believe me? do youre own research and ull come up with the same conclusion.
