When I don’t get around to posting a LOUIE of the Week until Friday, it’s a sign that things have been pretty hectic at LOUIE Central.
Looking at the website, it appeared that I never acknowledged Johnny Thunders’ contribution to the LOUIE Universe, so today looks like a good day to rectify that situation.
Here’s a vintage recording (as they all are) of Johnny Thunders– live in April 1990, with John Connor, Sam Steiger & Peter O’Kennedy of The Golden Horde doing the song as a medley with “Hang on Sloopy” … one year before Johnny kicked the bucket, so to speak.
Did anyone ever find any recordings of the Ramones doing the song?
If so, please please speak up….
