[@trubowspiritwind]

You are so right. I expected the same thing at first and started it with muted sound so I could just sit back and read it without listening to that machine like audio. When they showed the first part with him talking into his camera I had to turn up the sound. Wow! It was so relaxing sitting back, start the video over and, listen to his smooth delivery of some truly amazing facts about four friends and a song. One day it begins to grow legs of it's own. BOOM!!!! We have a smash hit that was not intended to be. When he reached the part about what the four did with the rest of their careers I found some of the legs it took on were astounding. Each of them went on to have something to do with the music 88 percent of the people on the planet would listen to I almost fell out of my chair. As he told how each passed I could only tap my chin with hands in prayer position and bow my head slightly with a thank you to each. Sorry I rambled on a bit but I love music so much.

When i saw "Number one hit from a group that wasn't a group" my thoughts turned to Sugar Sugar by The Archies, a song written for The Monkees that they didn't want to go anywhere near...

A band I was in did a heavy metal version of Sugar, Sugar. I yell sang it with a raspy voice and the guitar player distorted the snot out of his Gibson solid body. The drummer simplified the beat and the bass stayed pretty much the same. Great fun!

In 1971, I backpacked across Europe, staying in Youth Hostels. In Switzerland, I stayed at a Youth Hostel along with a bunch of rowdy guys from Turkey and they were singing a Turkish translation of Na Na Hey Hey Goodbye repeatedly until it got obnoxious. But they wouldn't stop. I never forgot.

Had to laugh, you jogged a memory. I was in high school in the mid 70s, and our go-to song after basketball practice was "Black Water" by the Doobie Bros. We got pretty good at it, especially the A Capella part...sounded great in the shower. Coach used to have to kick us out so he could go home!

Paul Leka was a writing genius to have written so many tracks, Green Tambourine is a classic imo.

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Yeah - he was well involved with the business.

[@MartysPopParty]

@@the_guitar_trooper That song story is also a great one. Evidently, after the Lemon Pipers failed to chart a few times, they were given somewhat of an ultimatum to do “Green Tambourine” or face being dropped. Supposedly, they were not very fond of the song. They complied and, as they say, the rest is music history. While some may cast the song in a “bubblegum” throw away mold, I agree it’s a great track and even the somewhat gimmicky over the top echoed vocal effect really worked well on that particular track.

[@gravityissues5210]

@@MartysPopParty What's really weird is Paul used the exact same instrumental backing tracks dubbed over with the vocals from another group he was producing, Baltimore-based Peppermint Rainbow, and included it as an album cut.

[@MartysPopParty]

@@gravityissues5210Strange indeed and I think it was in 1969 well after the LP’s version. Perhaps they needed an album filler and Paul had control of the master track…

Thanks! It is a very difficult thing sometimes to discover what really happens. I try to dig through the ambiguous info. Over the years facts can easily become exaggerated or perverted and it is a constant battle to find out what really happened. One thing that I DO take liberties with is conversations, because they are rarely specific in documents. In cases where I want a conversation that isn’t specified, I will take literary license and forge a conversation that will match factual outcomes.

Great story! Because Na Na was played so often by the White Sox, I presumed Steam was from Chicago! I'm surprised to learn that they came from CT!

Great video! Never knew this about this song. Seems to be played tons at NBA games back in the days when George Karl was the head coach of the SuperSonics. Not necessarily by the Sonics, but IIRC by the Phoenix Suns, who also played Gary Glitter R&R Part II a lot, and a couple other teams.
