Firstly a correction; in my post for Please Don't Touch (19th Feb) I put the version by Johnny Kidd & The Pirates as the original. I've since come across this version, which appears to pre-date it. Apparently Kidd gave the song away as he was yet to find a recording contract and hoped to get a few royalty payments.

The Bachelors ... Please Don't Touch
(1959)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_YZJJ-U1aU
(This is not the Irish vocal group of the same name)

Friday
Another song recorded by Johnny Kidd & The Pirates, but another that they were second to record, but only just.

The original:

The Searchers ... Hungry For Love
(1963)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYORitsKTCc

The cover version:

The Revillos ... Hungry For Love
(1980)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6cvf2WwMXI

Bloody hell, foiled again.

Milchman, hope this efficiency stretches to getting your round in at the Hackney gathering.

2 of my last 3 posts in this thread were posted after 8pm, but as soon as I post one in the early hours, somebody, normally Bovine, says 'I wanted to post one today'. Are you two related?
As to the Hackney gathering, if I go, of course I'll get in a round, but probably won't go anyway.
