The Jemtunes ‘Leaps n Bands’ series is, throughout 2020, featuring a track by track expose of the albums that have spoken loudest to me over the years.
But Jemtunes 141 to 150 – between 7 and 25 October – features 10 singles instead. Mainly because, when many of us now of a certain age first started buying records, the format of choice was the humble 45. And there was a lot of influence there.
One of my favourite novelty records of all time I think. Lyrics (as you can see) are questionable but that just adds to the attraction. Strangely, this single wasn’t banned from Radio 1 airplay!
