The Strangers - SRP 003 (STEREO)

*STEREO*. The Strangers play the strangely titled, "SRP 003" - see Sirri2's comment for an explanation. The beginning of the tune is pretty much a straight lift from the Fentones', 'The Mexican'. 1963, the B-side of 'Vaara'.

@MegaJoksa Thanks, lots of great instrumentals in Finland.

SRP is an abbreviation for "Suomen Rikospoliisi" - former name of

"Keskusrikospoliisi" (KRP) which is Finnish National Bureau of Investigation, The FBI of Finland:) And 003 was their phone number in the 60s.

"SRP 003" and "Vaara" were on a soundtrack of 1962 Finnish movie "Vaarallista Vapautta" (Dangerous Freedom). The film was based on a true story about some Finns trying to prevent the transfer of an Estonian refugee back to the Soviet Union.

That's true about YT censorship!

I know it what you mean -- LV has taken the word "SCANDAL" to a new SCANDALOUS level!!!!

[SirBasildeBrush]

They probably could, but not without the YT censor coming down on them... bad boys!

Truly, I saw the SCANDAL!!! and thought it was a comment from LV himself.
