  • caught my ear: Hey, Little Girl, by The Nomads

    From weary flake@21:1/5 to All on Sat Jan 11 21:20:58 2020
    This caught my ear recently, Hey, Little Girl by The Nomads:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQBRotEBg0M

    It's on the 5 CD C'mon C'mon scottish box.
    It is also on the Return Of The Amphetamine Generation LP,
    where it's here reviewed as a downer song, whatever:

    Since the lp title has a drug reference, maybe the reviewer was making a drug reference as well & in that regard, I'd agree - although I'd use "bummer" instead of "downer". Definitely a song that doesn't bear repeated listening. The singer sounds like
    he's 30 while the writer & the musicians must be in their mid-teens.

    It's a simple peppy tune, I like it, can listen to it over and
    over again. From that same LP compilation the last song is Morning
    Dew by the Pakka-Jax, that's a downer, 33:11 into the video:

    I prefer Tim Roses's version. "Morning Dew" is a classic "downer" song;
    I have more than 20 versions of the song, myself.

    Guitar riff reminds me of "Liar Liar" by the Castaways.

    Staccatos "The One To Lose" reminds me of that song:

    They're both 1965 songs.
