Single File: The Jolly Green Giants

Spokane’s favorite speedsters, the Jolly Green Giants take on Roy Lee Johnson’s 1963 R&B eponymous instructional dance song, “Busy Body” (1:34), the A-side of their sole single. The BPM's will make your body busy! A killer riff, cranked Fender amp and belligerent vocals place this suspect firmly in the Pacific Northwest in 1966. We also discuss backbone slippage and other horrible dancefloor injuries. The B-side is “Caught You Red Handed” (41:47) and Weldon likes it even better than the feature presentation. More Sonics-style vocals on this number: the combination of the mean minor third and tough lyrical content causes modulation and intimidation. Tear off your shoes!!
