In the Country
Summer Holiday Swinging on a Star |

Andrew Jackson writes about this record: Extremely rare 1967
and gloriously brilliant EP, 'Pinky and Perky's Summer Holiday'. From
the opening track, Frank Sinatra's 'Come Fly With Me' the pigs show
they are on top swinging form, and really get into a summer groove on
'What's New at the Zoo' and 'I Do Like to be Beside the Seaside'. On
side 2 things really start to sizzle as they launch into 'In the Country'
which features some of the best Morton Frog vocals ever committed to
vinyl. Then comes the ultimate sixties summer song,'Summer Holiday'
- made famous by Cliff Richards, but performed here about 3000 times
better. Lastly, the show-stopper: their grandstanding, pull-out-the-stops
theme-tune / anthem, 'Swinging on a Star'. |
