We need Caco for this thread!

Golden Earring. A Dutch band from the 70s, mostly known for the brilliantly evocative 'Radar Love' but they had a number of other hits.

If you like music videos, there is a fantastic Dutch TV station, www.192tv.tv which runs them 24/7. It's cable/satellite only but it's one of the many I can get on my internet set-top box.

Here's Mott the Hoople.

If this don't bring Cackers back, nothing will..

Gosh that takes me back!

As a teenager, the club that I frequented had a resident group called the Alan Price Rhythm and Blues Combo (which morphed into the Animals).
As club regulars we were familiar with their numbers, including HOtRS of course.
At this stage the Animals were not known nationally - only in the club.
We heard that they were going to play at a remote village hall, so we went in a group to support them.
The music was above the heads of the 'bumpkins' who were intent on defending their chicks from the squaddies from the nearby Army camp.

The Animals started the chords of HOtRS so we collected in a circle in the middle of the dancefloor - knowing what was coming.

That weekend it went to No1.

Perhaps this is the best video ever, in one way.
Stevie Ray turns up knackered and hungover for the soundcheck. Leaves his coat on. Yawns. Picks his nose. Tries to hit a chord or two....



My copy of SRV's The Real Deal pitched up in the post this morning, oddly enough.

A bit modern for everyone here but Sigala's "Sweet Loving". That bimbo on the rollerskates in LA.......oh my.

(I submit that this thread was entitled 'Best Video' not 'Best Music'.)
