Your group had a lot more bounce and personality than the original done by the Lads.

After following recording artists for years, in the 80’s the music had lost its luster and interest (rap music, that bane of society!). Now finding there are a number of groups that are worthy of their wax/vinyl. Gimme that old time rock n roll.
