Reviews & Opinions

PUNKY GIBBON: Showing a few signs of running out of steam and recorded with new drummer, this has inspired cover art and less high spots, but still boasts a respectable amount of hits, although a five-minute medley of the wimpiest songs ever recorded falls a bit flat.

Additional Notes / Lyrics

The tracks covered in 'Golden Shower Of Hits' are: 'Along Comes Mary' (The Association), 'Close To You' (Carpenters), 'Afternoon Delight' (Johnny Carver), 'Having My Baby (Paul Anka)', 'Love Will Keep Us Together' (written by Neil Sedaka) and D-I-V-O-R-C-E' (Tammy Wynette).
