The Zantees - Brand New Cadillac (1978)

Billy Miller writes: "Lost 70s video of the Zantees shot by Henry Jones, the genius behind the Fleshtones' Soul City film! We opened most of our shows starting in 1977 with this Vince Taylor classic. We never did it on a record - this was a demo recorded by Wayne Vlcan, guitarist of the Motions of Bumble Bee '65 fame! We were so horrified when the Clash did it (none of us were fans), that we dropped it like a hot crumpet. Big benefit for Henry's Snake Monkey films Tuesday June 26 at Bowery Electric with the A-Bones, Nervus Rex (reunion!) and a Super Rock group that we're not allowed to announce until Thursday. Hint: It's not the Clash..."

There's something haunting in this version... some kind of a creepy ghostly possessed feeling.

That's desperate Rock'n'Roll to me !

And I love it !!!

THE MARSHMALLOW OVERCOAT replied to THE MARSHMALLOW OVERCOAT's discussion what is a good price for a #'d 100-copy 45? in the group Trading Post
"Thanks for your thoughts. I don't want to piss off fans by issuing later a 45 they thought was very limited. I really like the 100-copy idea, though. It can BARELY pay for itself, but would be so cool... "
