    Frankie davidson is doing all the voices in this version.Acouple of years ago he was doing a sunday afternoon jazz gig at a club in Sydney when towards the end he asked for requests.

    I wrote down Gimme dat ding. He had a bit of a chuckle then did a swing version which was great.

  • Sounds like a very cheesy attempt to mimic the Pipkins!

  • This is a very good version but nothing can top the Pipkins'!

  • 1:00-1:06 I think somebody died in that crash

  • It's great to hear a contrasting version for comparison though, thanks for posting this!

  • Also, the pianist here sounds like he's partially transcribed the great solo the original pianist takes on the original recording, however other than that, I think the piano accompaniment here is a bit too tasteful and timid accompanying; it is not the relaxed free-for-all the original recording is; and and finally, the rah-tah-tah that the high vocalist adds over the piano solo seems completely pointless and disrespectful to me.

  • The lower vocalist does a good job imitating the sound of the original vocalist, but seems too preoccupied with coming in on a specific beat, whereas on the original recording the man with the low voice chimed in loosely wherever he felt like it, which was part of what makes the Pipkins recording so special.

  • This version is very interesting... I kind of prefer the original Pipkins recording however, because they sound more relaxed, whereas both of the vocalists here are a bit stiff: the one with the high voice sounds like he's sped it up a'la Chipmunks versus the singer on the original recording simply singing in falsetto.

  • 00:28-00:30 is incredibly funny

  • The version I have in my Farkens New Toy video is Frankie Davidson and this is the same one. He is an Aussie singer I think from the sixties and seventies.
