From 1991 and all you need to know is that it is the Slade classic done by The Mission and produced by Slade member’s Noddy Holder and Jimmy Lea.
It’s a decent cover and a good alternative play if your sick of the original. The CD contains another 3 Glam Rock classics. Bolan’s “Metal Guru” being the hightlight.
The other 2 are Slade tracks and I’m sure the last one has Holder on vocals. Fun covers.
Thanks Fred for this!
Merry Christmas one and all!

It’s part of the Christmas Musical Theme, sorry I’ve not replied sooner. Found this in my Spam folder.
