old recording of the Gene Vincent Hit, Pistol Packin' Mama which was released in Britain in June 1960, and made the top twenty,stayed in the charts for 9 weeks.what a great sound with his band the Blue Caps .one of the ero's greatest unsung bands
@SixtySumthin Sorry it has taken me so long to reply. No, I'm not Colin Green. I was 13 when this came out. I was the original bass player with The Wild Angels and currently have a band called The Rockin' Gold Stars (we're on the Tube!). Keep rock rolling!
I stand corrected , Mr.Bumstead and thanks for this , I seem to remember 'winging it' without checking my sources first ! I may even have suspected at the time that this was not typical Cliff Gallup....but did not let it deter, Were you there at the time? Is Colin Green still with us? Are YOU Colin Green !
Regards from Scotland's North East and.....rock on !
@SixtySumthin Cliff Gallup did not play on this. The backing band were The Beat Boys and it was recorded in Abbey Road. Georgie Fame was indeed on keyboards and the guitarist was Colin Green who had been with Nero & The Gladiators and went on to work with Georgie Fame's Blue Flames

Released in 1960, almost 4 years after Cliff Gallup left the band, he certainly did not play on this.
