[Mike]

A very rare clip of Cliff Nobles and his group performing the horse. This clip has the original musicians of the song. Benny Williams on Bass, Bobby Tucker on Guitar, Tommy Soul on Drums.

That Cliff Nobles clip is amazing! Beyond cool.

[Benji]

Worst version I know of is by the Johnson Bros on german-only 45. It's awful, can't bear to even think about it.

[Mike]

ok not strictly love is alright

but once this sprang to mind, was never gonna let a chance to mention this mix of the horse and tighten up go by....

hey joe bataan...

Apparently the instrumental was down purely to the Philly musicians, MFSB. Jesse James gave them no credit and no money bar the session fee for it and because of this many of the MFSB then refused to work with Jesse James again.

Always liked this, in a contemporary style.
