Pete S Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Here's a tricky one for you GREEN GRUNCHONS ALL STARS - GUYS AND GALS BOUNCE - BOO GA LOO LABEL Only get this once in a blue moon - it's an instrumental variation on Karate Boogaloo - price anyone?

45cellar Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 I bought one £3 soul pack from Soul Bowl and this record was in there. I have only seen one other copy on ebay over the years and that's it. Sorry I can't help with price Pete, but obviously I consider this one to be incredibly rare.

Jerry Hipkiss Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) First scan I've ever seen! Nice...remember Gary Rushbrooke playing it when he guested down this way around 1980, never heard it since, guess I'll have to stick with my London issue of Jerry O. Value? Hard to tell as it comes around so infrequently! Edited December 16, 2014 by Jerry Hipkiss Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
45cellar Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 It is a difficult one to price Jerry. Couldn't find it on You Tube but it is a Variation on Karate Boo-Ga-Loo Theme or rather The Pearl. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Pete S Posted December 17, 2014 Author Share Posted December 17, 2014 I've had three of these, this third one is, I think, the same copy as my second one which I sold in 2009! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

As I said on facebook yesterday I had never heard the Grunchons version but read an article on it by Rob Partridge I think it was. I listened to your mixcloud & listened to my Jerry O. I think it's an exact copy so I would love to know what the difference is. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

The difference is it's completely different, if you can't actually hear it by listening to the record then it's pointless me trying to explain, they're playing a different tune on the trumpets for a start!

Shsdave Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 I can't find that anywhere but if it's the same backing track as part 1, it's the same except for added piano on Popcorn Pete trust me it's the same as the Grunchons, it's got the added brass + what I think is organ in there. End of the day doesn't matter either way, I just thought I'd add to your facebook post. Unfortunately can't do a sound clip but after Christmas if you're interested I'll sort something out. To be honest I've not played Part 1 for many years as Part 2 is just so much better & totally instrumental. I'll give it a spin tonight Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Shsdave Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 (edited) Ok Played Popcorn Boogaloo part 1 & have to say it sounds weak compared to Part 2. On part 2 you lose the vocal & thankfully the funky guitar which is replaced by organ & it's a much brighter / louder mix (no worry of drowning the vocal ?) with Brass & drums leading the way, a great stomping instrumental & identical to the Grunchons. Strange release with the name the Green Grunchons ? Edited December 18, 2014 by SHSDave Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
