Gimme Gimme Good Lovin'
from In The Past: Garage Rock Podcast · host Weldon Hunter & Erik Komarnicki
When did the 60s symbolically end? Altamont? Kent State? No - when the organ stops playing towards the end of "Gimme Gimme Good Lovin'" by Crazy Elephant. It's bubblegum, but also super rockin'. Who'da thunk it? The first cover of the version was by ... Giorgio Moroder? It doesn't sound like his 70s stuff but it is wild. Third is a 80s Moroder-esque version from Roxy Perry, a blueswoman who didn't expect a Hi-NRG remix of her vocal. The fourth suitor is Canada's legendary hair metallers, Helix. For Canucks Erik and Weldon, this is manna from heavy metal heaven. Finally, a recent rendition from GospelbeacH, which is faithful - too faithful? Listen to this with some girls from Texarcan!!
