I’ve probably posted this before but this really is a classic.
Evokes memories of the mid 70’s.
Such a smooth and classy piece of music beautifully performed!

Great song.
2 millions copies sold according to a report on Midlands Today.
The 70’s was indeed a great decade for music, however, that Mouldy Old Dough didn’t contribute to it, in my opinion!
I think the point is sometimes missed with tracks like this Kets.Quote:

I believe that music of many variants becomes the backdrop of your life when you sit back and think of your past.
It’s only now as I’m getting old that I realise how important certain tracks are in my own story.
Down Town by Petula Clark - First song I can remember loving when at home as a tot with nun.
The Batman theme.
Thunderbirds theme.
Burt Bacharach songs like “This Guys In Love With You”.
Andy Williams.
Keith West - Song From A ****age Opera.
Little Arrows by Leapy Lee.
All kinds Of Everything by Dana.
Fastest Milkman In The West - Benny Hill.
I could go on forever, some you would no doubt class as rubbish, many I didn’t appreciate at the time but I do now.
Not everything can be the quality of Albatross or Man Of The World with the genius of Peter Green involved.
Music is more than that and 2 million people disagreed with you in 1972.
Not many songs sold that many records even then, it was the second best seller of 72.
I like rubbish like this as well, it reminds me of being 14-15 and having no worries or pressures but it’ll be denounced as garbage by you purists I guess.
It’ll make Swedish happy though and it’s not ABBA!

I play in three music groups, playing all sorts of stuff, some of which I really like and other songs which I very much dislike. It does, though, help me get to play better (plenty of scope for that) by doing lots of different types of song. I am now the bass player in a ukulele orchestra and for an upcoming gig and one of the songs we’re doing is Karma Chameleon, a truly horrible number, but sometimes you have to take the good with the bad! I just really enjoy playing.
