Just heard Spedding's version.

Just quietly, it's shithouse...

[nzoz1975]

@SpivWiggins Neither versions really have the heart that this one has... needless to say, a sinister heart!

[stevemangler1]

Well she's cute . I prefer Spedding's . His guitar sound is ace + I think his voice is fine . Don't get mad now nzoz . Just an opinion . Nice to hear the original + it is a great tune . I just think Chris takes this basic Rock 'n Roll tune + makes it a bit more suave . As a whole the Spedding album it's on is fantastic . All of it .

[nzoz1975]

@stevemangler1 It's fine. You don't come across like a know-it-all prick (I know, I know, I do....). Drummer Herman Kovacs admitted to me that Spedding achieved what TMG were trying to do with the song. Chris's version wouldn't have been # 1 and TMG needed chart action.... just like The Hoff needs attention.

[BrightProductions]

I thought this song was by David Hasselhoff, this is so much better :)

[nzoz1975]

@BrightProductions yeah, it's a shame that the novelty version gets the attention, whilst the original (Ted Mulry) and Chris Spedding's version is less known. Lucky this verison was # 1 in Australia in '75, so it has some significance to a point.

[nzoz1975]

@xxdrew333xxx okay... you wanted to get a reaction out of me and others and you got it. Now fuck off. We like it. This is not for you. We don't care about your opinion. You visited, you didn't like it and now you can fuck off.

Afternoon, this brought back so many memories. My youth and how easy life was back then. Byeee

[shakypam]

I'm "of the era" for what its worth. And watching it now - well- Ted Mulry and his gang were/are as fuckedup as i remembered them. There really is no excuse for that crap IMO. And it's a nicked song to start with.

@stevemangler1 Your opnion sucks. Ted mulray gangs version shlts all over speddings.

Mulrays have real aussie... all nice like "cmon" and then.. "get out" like when the dog farts.. works perfectly.

speddings dosnt have the same tone and is drool...like he is just going through the motions.

[trojon1313]
