I've been re-living my teenage days once again by catching some old episodes of Auf Weidersehen Pet on the TV streaming box we've just got. Coming over all nostalgic, I suggested to Trev that we tackle the shows theme tune and this is the result.

Anyone outside the UK not familiar with this TV classic from the 80s can find more info here:

Trev really did the business on this track, getting that "bunch of lads in the pub" backing vocal off to a tee. As ever his lead vocal is the mutts nuts! Cheers Trev!

Line up wise on this, I used my tele, no-name bass & a couple of tracks of the new acoustic.

Cheers for listening!

I don't believe it I thought about doing this yesterday, for some reason the tune went through my head, the problem being I was thinking it was from minder......
Having said that brilliant guy's great collaboration,
Well done.......

Oh Reggie's doing his impression of David Essex on cocaine (allegedly).

Loved the programme and very glad you've covered the theme tune. Cracking cover  ;D

Alex - I did the theme tune for Minder (I could be go good for you)
