My writing is not on the wall so when I'm dead I won't be gone for long until the cat came back the very next day thought she was a gonner but the cat came back with a couple stray dogs.
Watched the Manfreds perform this in the pavilion on Cromer Pier, Norfolk on Friday 17 March 2017 and boy are they good. Paul Jones seems absolutely ageless and looks and acts like someone in his 40s.
A great band, I don't doubt, but this is a very tricky song to cover effectively. To my mind it needs something approaching Hugh Flint's original (in both senses of the word) drum accompaniment - lurching, almost random-sounding in places, but somehow exactly right - to really lift it. Check out McGuinness Flint's live version recorded at the BBC - at least as good as the record.
Paul Jones - the Second Best Leather Trouser wearer next to Phil Lynott - damn hot. Wonderful, saw him with the Blues Band at Hammersmith I can't remember how many years ago but it was bloody awesome.
Paul Jones is one hell of a harmonica player.
Such a great atmospheric song, loved it then and now, brilliant.
Love it then and now 😊
Just been to a recent concert and they sang this song. Absolutely brilliant. Love Paul Jones.
Brilliant,I have followed Paul Jones since I was a teenager in the sixtees
Whoever posted this, I love you! This is so joyous and good. Love the Manfreds!❤️
Paul Jones was a few years above me at Edinburgh Academy.
What a joyous song -- despite it's title!!! Fantastic lads. Keep on rocking!!!!
Wonderful!! Brought back great memories. Thank you Paul and Tom
Used to love the Manfreds especially when Paul Jones was with them. Used to fancy him something rotten! Tom McGuinness is quite a character too.
Bloody love that amplified mandy, what a great sound!
I wish I could have been there. Brilliant. You don't get real music like that anymore. Bloody sad.
I love this band . Jones Mc Guinness and The others.
D'Abo and Hugg are there too
Just lovely to see you guys singing this again,loved this the first time I heard it and went out and brought a copy,still have it.

Paul taught me French so I would pass my "A" levels. A joy of a man.
Saw The Manfreds in Wakefield last week ( September 2017) and really enjoyed the show and music. Paul Jones is just brilliant.
Bought the single way back then ,still have it , nice to see you playing it live,🇬🇧😎
Brilliant just brilliant… makes me cry every time it’s played.
Great! No more , no less!! x
God I remember buying this record when I was a young lad, how time flies 😢😢
Thank for this brilliant band thanks Paul and Tom
Don't forget Mike.
@@davidprovan5650Which one, Hugg, Vickers or D'abo?

Yes, it's brilliant. Rather like Levon Helms with "a bump and a jerk"!
Brian Jones asked Paul Jones before Mick Jagger to be the lead singer of the Rollin Stones

Lots of noise on the stage...

wow sax player needs some practice - great song though
sax is totally inappropriate on this song. could do without the harp as well.
Agree, and I'm a sax player 😁 so I sing it instead.
Rubbish
Comments not posting of song
Saw them last night and they were fab as per usual
Some don't know when to give up
