Taken from the LP ‘Hot Hits – Volume 17’ | (Music For Pleasure MFP 50057) March 1973
The series of ‘Hot Hits‘, continued with a Marilyn Monroe lookin’ Gangster’s Moll wearing flashy jewellery, a low cut black little number and a fluffy scarf thing entwined around her shoulders. No wonder she had problems potting that easy yellow. The shady hat wearing hustler in the background waits patiently for his turn to pot a few balls.
There’s a ‘Not Exchangeable’ note stamped on the back cover, presumably a message for anyone who’d just heard the first track, a dire version of “Cum On Feel The Noize”. Not that the overrated Slade original merits any gold winner awards. Enough for any 70s kid to rush back to Woolworths for his / her pocket-money back.
Cover versions include “Power To All My Friends”, by Cliff Richard, “Pinball Wizard”, by the Who, a Marc Bolan sound-a-like yelling his way through “Twentieth Century Boy” by T.Rex and young Michael and his fro-bro’s have the honour of their “Doctor My Eyes” covered.
