Saw a great 3 piece folk band today (mandolin, guitar, and washboard) at a fall festival and they did this great David Essex number. They had a great sound. I talked to the mandolin player after the show and he told me he didnt know Def Leppard covered it. Ha
(Def Leppard didn't write this. They did do a nice cover, however, that MOST of us have heard)
The song reached #1 in Canada, 3 in the UK and #5 on the US charts in 1974.
Here is the real deal:
