audio recording - something I first noticed years ago when they ripped off the video of Radar Love from Golden Earring's first appearance on the Midnight Special and combined it with the studio track, even though when the appearance was taped lead singer Barry Hay had laryngitis and guitarist George Kooymans had to take more of the vocals.

1966......#11 U.S. Billboard Hot 100, #8 U.S. Cash Box Top 100
Original video edited and remastered with HQ stereo sound.
"Dirty Water" is a song by the American rock band The Standells, written by their producer Ed Cobb.
