I loved this new version of a classic 60s track, when it was released in 1983- but it did very little, chartwise.

If anyone else here used to listen to Annie Nightingale on Radio One on Sunday evenings, you will very likely recall this weird song that got regularly played on there in the early 80s.

Anyone else remember these girls, and this record from 1986?

I sure do...their cover of Spirit in the Sky was interesting to say the least
The song from the end titles of one of the best films of the 80's, "The Sure Thing":-

Woowoowoowoowoowoo.. Barbra Steisand!
The group Duck Sauce apparently used artwork from her 1980 album Guilty produced by Barry Gibbs of the Bee Gees which featured her best known hit Women In Love. But for me the last track is a forgotten masterpiece. It has a great jazzy build up to one of the best endings to a song I've ever heard. Listen from 5:20 onwards to see what I mean.

I love 'Muck It Out' too but I can't find it either, it's my favourite song by The Farmers Boys.
I've got 'Phew Wow' which is also a brilliant song.
A totally different song I totally love is 'Where's Romeo' by Cava Cava.
