The Honeybus - Delighted to see you
Loading...
Uploaded by jimmytheferret on May 10, 2008
The first record issued by Honeybus on Deram in 1967, and one written by Pete Dello of course. A nice piece of flower-power whimsy and soaring harmonies. Best enjoyed in a darkened room with a bottle of Southern Comfort.

Most songs do go good with southern comfort, Jimmy (jk). The slide whistle, kazoo, or whatever it is makes it sound like someone took a Monkees song and threw in a touch of Os Mutantes. By the way, I mean that in a good way.

Well, wow, I like this!
-
that's a kazoo

Great song. I personally prefer The N'betweens (later to become Slade) version.

Is that theremin I'm hearing?

Did you hear the one about the firefly who flew into the electric fan backwards. He was delighted as well!!!

amazing coincidence that Jean Genie and this track have the same riff!! Especially when you consider that David Bowie was on the same label at the same time in 1968!!
And all these years I thought he had borrowed it from The Sweet (Blockbuster!!) - who were also on the same label as David in 1972-3 (RCA).!!!

@kenscott Don't you mean that their other single that I uploaded, "Girl of Independent Means", is the one that has the same riff as Jean Genie?
