Bryn 413 Posted December 22, 2004 (edited) I also remember a song something like: Judy in Disguise with glasses, which came to mind along with my Gran's transistor radio. From memory it was John Fred & The Playboys who sang that back in 1968 - the same year that Yummy Yummy Yummy was a hit for Ohio Express, Helule Helule for the Tremeloes AND I'll Pretend by Des O'Connor! !

dublin duke 0 Posted December 23, 2004 At The Shay around 67/68 on Saturday nights, I think I remember them always playing Mony Mony by Tommy James & The Shondells, Dizzy by Tommy Roe and Gimme Gimme Good Lovin' by Crazy Elephant (mind you I was only 6/7 years old at the time). Those songs coupled with "that smell" bring back fantstic memories. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Liontamer 202 Posted December 23, 2004 Ah the memories. "Dizzy" by Tommy Roe at Leicester, along with the Sweets "Little Willy", & who could forget the crowd joining in with "Gordon is a moron" by Jilted John when a certain Mr Kennett was riding. Happy days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
