The thread title says "classics" and this song is a classic
Whether or not the other tracks Mushymanrob has been posting since he started his exercise are classics is a matter of opinion (and opinions can vary greatly), but they are almost invariably "rare". |

I love "Wooly Bully" by Sam the Sham and the Pharoahs and would consider it a real sixties classic, but it is certainly not "rare" by the OP's original definition of the term, so has no place in this thread.

Wooly Bully is a classic and the thread title says "classic" so it deserves to be here. He posts some that have been bigger hits and thats ok as they were also classics.

"A classic is an outstanding example of a particular style; something of lasting worth or with a timeless quality;" one of many definitions the word 'classic' has. id suggest that the tracks i submit HAVE got 'lasting worth' and/or 'timeless quality'. but you, bickering, point scoring, after 6 1/2 years of saying nothing, says more about you then me. |

Under My Thumb was a hit in 1974 I believe.
Do you listen to R2's Sounds Of The Sixties Mushymanrob? I love that show as you get some big hits but some rarities too. |

yes i do, mostly whilst im driving to a site to (metal) detect. brian often plays tracks that have featured on here. not sure whats up with brian though, ive missed the begining recently. dont rate tim at all, would prefer mike read who used to have a 60's show in the late 80's. something went wrong, that show was cancelled for some reason, and brian started his show soon after - possibly out of the need to feed the demand there was for 60's stuff. but even brian gets some things wrong, like the other week when he played the kinks 'days' and said that was their last top 10 until 'supersonic rocket ship'... lola of course got to #2 in 1970, and 'apeman'. |

Sorry, messed up my quote of Mushymanrob's post from above re SOTS.
Tim Rice is awful on the show. Sounds like a robot just reading producer Swern's script. At least he could make it less obvious as Brian does. Brian's not well apparently again and there's no news as to when he'll be back, if ever. Sure hope Rice doesn't get the gig permanently if Brian retires or worse. Johnnie Walker would do a great job imo but would they want him as he does Sounds Of The 70's? Agree about Mike Read or Tony Blackburn, without the texts and jokes of course. He does know his 60's as he was there on the pirates and Radio 1. |
