Then some Steve, am i that transparent??? I should be. Eliza has a fabulous tone out of her basses, very effective using her playing skill level.

That voice Timbre is intoxicating, her pure and growl range is remarkable.

Another gal on Electric bass from the "Southern Culture on the skids" Mary Huff, great great Stage presence and bass playing, vocals an additional treat of much worth. Great Trio combo, essence of what i like to hear and see. j
 
Pretty sure this is Pans People, correct me Tony if i have sinned... UK Gals that would be grannies now... world never stops turning... and slowing from my perspective. Love this Beatles song, the simple two noter has never been more succinct. Love the B52's, always have. j.

Must admit your choice has not only that and more, its also her eyes, innocent and wicked at the same time.... all of the ladies have natural gifts and talents few can achieve. At risk of being heard as male base comment, the ladies represented UK with heightened essence with few competitors.

More recent example of astonishing ladies out front and dancing, Broken Peach minus Erika now, pity as the four gals and 3 guys on instruments are and have, something very special. Much to see and hear, fabulous. j ** mind you all of the pans ladies have their own stamp on the dance floor, the curves are amazing, not just the road kind.

Hi Jon ......... Yes , it looks like Pans People ...... but I`m a little confused .......

This B52`s cover was recorded for an American TV advert in 2004 ........ long after Pans People bit the dust ......... so I guess this is Pans People dancing to an earlier version of Paperback Writer ......... presumably the original Beatles version which was released in 1966 ..........

........ but ..... Pans People only existed from 1968 till 1976 ........ they only came into existence two years after Paperback Writer originally charted for The Beatles ......... So , seeing Top Of The Pops was a chart show , how could they be dancing to a single two years after it was released ..............

However , ( If you`re still awake ) , I think I have the answer .........

Although we knew Pans People through their appearances on Top Of The Pops ......... this looks like a different show altogether ....... maybe for European TV ........which could explain why they are still dancing to it a couple of years after it`s sell by date ........

The Go Jo`s were the first TOTP dancers , followed by Pans People , followed by Ruby Flipper , followed by Legs & Co ....... who were a sort of rehashed Pans People .

You`re right about Pans People being either in their seventies , or pushing eighty now .........

........ Sometimes I think I`ve got too much spare time on my hands .................


PS ..... You mentioned Gang Of Four`s Sara Lee earlier ........ apparently she has performed with the B-52`s as well .............

..... and seeing we are talking Beatles covers ...... ( see what you`ve done Jon ...... you`ve woken me up again ... ) ..........

Here`s Steveo having a go at something which first appeared on the Yellow Submarine album .........

I`ve put this on before ...... ( I think ) ...... but it was so long ago I`ve forgotten about it ..........

Clive Bunker from Jethro Tull on drums ......... Someone pulls the plug at the end .......

........ and here`s the four lovable mop tops themselves ............

Billy Preston ( presumably ) on keyboards , hidden out of sight , somewhere ............ " Is it because me is black ? ..... " .... ( copyright Ali G ...... ) ...........

.... and one last cover version .......

This time it`s Primus doing the Charlie Daniels Band " The Devil etc etc ... "

.... just a normal Tuesday afternoon in Georgia , apparently ...........

If God rides a Harley , then the Devil rides a Schwinn Hornet , so it seems ....... At least I think it`s a Schwinn , or something very similar ............
