    More Bubble Gum. There was also a heavier, uncut version by Helix.

    A music video was made for the Crazy Elephant cover "Gimme Gimme Good Lovin'". Two versions of this video were filmed: One for music video channels, and the other being an "adult" version featuring topless models including a then 16-year-old porn star Traci Lords. This version was aired on the Playboy Channel in the United States.[2]

    Let's rather stay with the original.



    We also played this number (a heavier version) in our band. The thumping bass and drums, backed by howlin lead guitar with lots of fuzz certainly got the dance floor going!

    ...and more bubblegum. Middle of the Road played middle of the road music; simple understandable and nice dance beat.

    The late 60's and early 70's was not all bubblegum. This one easily filled the dance floor.



    Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress" was a song by the rock and roll group, The Hollies, and released on February 1, 1972 as a single on the Parlophone Records label.

    It was released soon after Allan Clarke, who was featured on lead guitar as well as lead vocal had left the group, from their album "Distant Light" (1970). As the group had just left EMI/Parlophone and signed with Polydor, they did not promote the song. However it became a No. 2 hit in the United States, their greatest ever singles success there. It was inspired and in the style of the rock and roll group Creedence Clearwater Revival, and on being reactivated by EMI in Britain a few months later, it reached No. 32.

    The song is notable in that it features Clarke playing rhythm guitar, something he rarely did (Clarke came up with the song's signature guitar rhythm that opens the song).
