now heres a band you guys would not have heard of....
THE REELS "this guy's in love with you" B/W "cry" 1982
short lived Aussie outfit from late 70s-mid 1980s...
their music was ofter quirky with a tinge of ska....
their biggest hits here were covers of old songs ie: Gentleman Jim's "according to my heart",CCR's "bad moon rising" and this Bacharach/David classic...
"A" side, i like it, was pleasant enough to listen to after thirty odd years...
"B" side, i dont like it, and neither side here is ska based!
single peaked at #7 here in Australia
