Georgie Fame - Get Away

Rare footage of Georgie Fame performing on the West German music TV show, Beat! Beat! Beat! in 1967. (Update: replaced with better quality version from Youtube.)

I came across this great cover of the Georgie Fame classic 'Yeh Yeh' by Los Tres Sudamericanos, a 60s Paraguayan trio (two guys and one gal) who found success in Spain. I previously featured their version of 'The Girl From Ipanema'.

    Funny, I was just listening to the Hullabaloo album (easy listening songs to accompany the tv program), and they do Yeh Yeh on that. Not like Georgie was ever on the show, if he was he's not on the DVDs. Anyways, ace stuff, gotta pick up his first couple US LPs one day.

      Actually, I have got a Hullabaloo clip of Georgie performing 'Yeh Yeh' - not that I could put my hands on it right now, though. But it's up on YouTube: http://youtube.com/watch?v=YTBQYCHQWMo
