Great song from Johnny Kidd & the Pirates they were the First ones - TopicsExpress



          

Great song from Johnny Kidd & the Pirates they were the First ones to do this song...big hit in 1960.... Then Fast Forward 5 yrs later 65 was the year the Guess Who did the song ...shortly before Burton Cummings joined the group...heres something I copied from Wikipedia....... More importantly, and unusually for bands of the time, they had only one guitarist (not two), alongside a bassist and a drummer. Kidd did not play any instruments on stage. This was influential on the rock bands of the 1970s: Led Zeppelin had such a line-up and tapes exist of them covering many Johnny Kidd songs in rehearsal, and it was after seeing Johnny Kidd & the Pirates that the Who decided that their singer Roger Daltrey should abandon playing guitar on stage. youtu.be/a99LGMHyGjs
