 | What the CD-booklet says:
Jo
Jo Zep & the Falcons were the distillation of a decade of diligent, uncommercial,
urban blues and soul bands. They were band with many talents and could change style
easily enough to play with Elvis Costello one moment and play the Montreux Jazz Festival
the next. The singer Joe Camilleri later became the leader of the Black Sorrows.
What I think of this song:
As numbers 15 and 16 this is more a song that
reminds of other European / American examples, than a piece of original work. This
time it is an Ozzie variation on 10CC, with the reggae-like sound of Dreadlock Holiday
never far away. I suppose that someone unfamiliar with 10CC could like this song
a lot. Although it is better than the real thing (no not Russell Morris' Real Thing,
that's impossible.) the lack of originality is too much for me.
