Vodka Collins, Miss Cadillac, Chemical Reaction

Nissin Power Station features the veteran glam rock band Vodka Collins with a song from their 1996 Polystar Records album Chemical Reaction.
This glam rock song was originally written in 1971, and was performed live by the band then, but never made it on the band's debut album "Tokyo - New York."
Vodka Collins reunion tours were sort of necromantic, with people wondering if one of these dedicated rock n roll hedonists would die on tour. During the 70s a tight musical unit, the group changed in the 90s into the antithesis of the popular notion of the uniform and precise technically perfect Japanese band. Loose is a conservative descriptive for this act.
"Miss Cadillac" - lyrics
Oh your headlight eyes
how they paralyze, yes they do
I can see your hot erotic point of view

So get ready Miss Cadillac
I'm gonna rock you
like a heart attack
my teenage dream

Cross a beach of smoke
through all these jokes
I'll drive your car
You're so pink
I shout pout and roll you out
we can dance bizarre

So get ready Miss Cadillac
I'm gonna rock you
like a heart attack
my teenage dream

This song was intended for the "Tokyo-New York LP in 1972 but the track was never completed. It was finally finished, recorded and released in 1996.

I will remove all "cat fight" comments. That's enough.

These guys are awesome, and would have been superstars in Milwaukee!!!

Hey! Jon Paris is from Milwaukee Wisconsin! He played with Alan and Monsieur in New York last year at BB King's.

[chuckdee121]

Cool! Wish I was there. Is Jon Paris any relation to the jazz singer Jackie Paris? I know Alan's mom Helen,was a big time jazz singer!

The bagpipes at the start threw me off a bit. lol.

[jivingjunkosan]

Yes, Helen Merrill is Alan's mother, and she is also on youtube, one video singing with Merv Griffin and Archie Bunker.
