"Hot dog" - Shakin' Stevens
"Get me two hot dogs ready to go," orders the man in the white suit. Hold the ketchup, easy on the onion, no mustard.
Love to see the string of circles picture-in-picture stuff, the height of television technology and more fun than anything else in years.

"Teardrops" - Shakin' Stevens
Baron Shakesford gyrates in a sea of dry ice, while his sparking suit is lit by pink spotlights.
There's a country twang to the song, perhaps a sniff of "Hey Paula" from the 1960s, but Shakey buries it beneath his usual syrup. A shame: there's a great song we're not hearing.
I handed over this recent commission to its owner today. More about This Ol' House (Bakewell Old House Museum) on my website here https://cognissart.co.uk/this-ol-house/
Another one named for the earworm it induced! 😉

One of the #Shaky songs recorded with obviously synthetic drums and brass section.
But still a great #Rockabilly number.
"This old house" - Shakin' Stevens
Ah, phew. It's not the Big Bates Is Watching clip I expected, but the Shakey Leads A Blockbusters Hand Jive.
