OH WHAT A THRILL - Rockpile (1980) Keep On rockin!!!

KEEP ON ROCKIN...OH WHAT A THRILL!!!

[@tattyshoesshigure5731]

Love the ‘stepped’ intro Rockpile use on this great song... they dug out some of Chuck’s lesser known gems & polished them ‘till they sparkled anew... a fantastic band who are still sorely missed to this day!

[@laroudoune]

Oh, well, well, well, you've blown my clouds away My rains have gone and my sunshine's here to stay And I feel so good I could really get down today I said, "Yes, yes!" Oh, what a thrill I said, "Yes, yes!" Oh, what a thrill If you say I can stay, baby, you know I will I could stay here all evenin' listenin' to the music you play Those same sweet songs of a golden yesterday Squeezin' and teasin' and pleasin' the evenin' away I said, "Yes, yes!" Oh, what a thrill I said, "Yes, yes!" Oh, what a thrill If you say I can stay, baby, you know I will I will wake up in the morning and do the same sweet things Rockin' with the record that the same sweet people sing All the clouds from the west go east, you confess it is spring I said, "Yes, yes!" Oh, what a thrill I said, "Yes, yes!" Oh, what a thrill I want you to want you to love you of your own free will Baby, you're so beautiful to want me here to stay I would be here forever but I gotta die someday But I will be lovin' you, baby, when I pass away I said, "Yes, yes!" Oh, what a thrill I said, "Yes, yes!" Oh, what a thrill Said I will love you like a lover loves a lover always

[@patbrunt]

great band greater song

[@theresamcneil5729]

This song always reminds me of party days with good o'l friends in Iskut

[@motownbo9396]

I always liked Rockpile's strange but respectful usage of Chuck Berry riffs in their songs. One Chuck Berry (or Rockpile) tune might use the opening licks from another song. Here the guitar solo (1:25-1:45) is straight out of Berry's Sweet Little Rock and Roller, even down to the timing (exactly 20 seconds). You could never go wrong when you borrow from the best.

[@crystalc1ear]

Terry Williams is the best rock drummer

[@MrBilgey]

brilliant player!

[@canadianroot]

He definitely could swing with the best of them. More than just a timekeeper. So lucky I got to see Rockpile in concert.

[@ginnyginger8686]

@@canadianroot Me too - they were hot - still are... ; )

[@canadianroot]

@@ginnyginger8686 My favourite band of that genre, hands down.

[@wildh0rse1]

Minimalist and really satisfying. Nick is such a good bassist lol

[@andybowen1249]

Six year late to the party, but Ry Cooder rates him as one of the best in the business

[@tattyshoesshigure5731]

Andy Bowen : interesting info on the multitalented Nick Lowe... thanks for posting it!

[@andybowen1249]

No problem. Have you seen his latest little concert from home for the rolling stone? It’s really good, with his teenage son, backing him up.

[@tattyshoesshigure5731]

Andy Bowen no, I’ve not seen that yet. I saw him last year at the Shepherd’s Bush Empire & he was really good. He had this phenomenal guitar band backing him called Los Straitjackets who I’d never heard of & they.blew everyone away during their solo spot mid show. Nick stuck to acoustic guitar and vocals throughout, producing a fantastic show for the audience. I bought a single ‘Tokyo Bay’ at the merch stall which is terrific, pure Nick Lowe gold!

[@andybowen1249]

Oh that’s fantastic. I caught up with him on the same tour at Manchester and was so glad I went. All the cool folk dig Nick Lowe lol.

[@rjmins]

This is great rock n roll! Simple, great beat , 3 chords, nice lyrics, good musicians. Too bad the video was cut off a little at the end.

[@edhillbilly666]

11 thumbs down...??? must be dead pufters...... :-)

[@sandravilla1269]

almost a chuck berry groove.sort of.

[@inquiry7]

Rockpile was unbelievably great! Nick Lowe on bass had to really hustle to keep up with the other three boys. sorta like Ron Wood on bass( a lot better player than Nick Lowe but not as good a songwriter) in the JBG.

[@guyripley9466]

inquiry7 Wrong about Nick Lowe and Ronnie Wood

[@roberttaub8365]

try keeping up in the pocket with Nick Lowe

[@malcombond4825]

Chuck writing, Dave songing...

[@ZippzoppzibbiddyZoop]

A Chuck song Done better...shaped in Chuck Style.

[@nicmart]

Not long after this Rockpile went bust and Lowe was obliquely criticizing rockers who continue to play American roots rock (i.e., Dave Edmunds).

[@samuelnavarro35]

Chochos, mota, alcohol y chemo

[@royarneeilertsen8293]

this song was writting in 1934 . dont now hes name

[@mbogucci1]

Google is easy... Oh What a Thrill was written by Chuck Berry and was first recorded and released by Chuck Berry in 1979
