I didn't know RP had passed.  He was a smash sensation here in the early 80's with those videos with the mannequin like women...

I would like to do a cover of RP... like Bang A Gong... which obviously was a cover he did.

I don't know this song Nick but I like what you are doing here... the bass sounds amazing... and you singing to it..

your vocals are immense... you do some crazy harmonizing and man it is cool.

Nearly missed this one as it doesn't appear on the latest song list (no MP3). Didn't recognise the song from the name but once it started I remember it well from the early 80's. Love how you can put something together so well with just bass and drums, but when you've got a voice as good as yours there's no need for instruments.

I'm familiar with the original. Probably from other source than most of you... I heard it in the Return of the Living Dead Part II soundtrack :D

There are no rotting corpses to be found here. Just a groovy performance where Pipes turns the original into his own.

This slaps hard! (as the kids might say).
