When I was in junior school, about 8 or 9 years old, in 1967, the teachers thought it might be nice to put the radio on in the school canteen during dinner time. This song came on and all the kids went mad dancing around, climbing on chairs and tables, and screaming. It was amazing. Needless to say, they never put the radio on again. I have always loved this song.

Thanks again for another great lesson rob, I'm a perpetual novice guitarist of 75years of age, your style of teaching has inspired me to have another go at trying to improve my guitar playing from a different perspective. Love the choice of songs, as well as you'r sense of humour thanks again Rob, looking forward the next one!.
