@lrd9999 That would be 0:51, I believe.

I have a couple of their albums. They remind me of the way Vanilla Fudge recorded other people's records - different. To me they are a cross between Chicago and The Flippers. I really like their music but I do like the original version by the Soul Survivors better but I wouldn't throw my copy of this away. Great video also, nothing like looking at old picture sleeves and records.

Thanks for the video - a real piece of Welsh music history!
I recognised the picture on the sleeve of the single - it's the old
Cardiff Empire Pool, sadly no longer there. it was demolished in 1998 to make way for the Millennium Stadium.
