The Barracudas - Summer Fun
The lip syncing is atrocious, the song barely breaks the two minute mark and is mostly composed of bop-bop-bop. But the singer is wearing a varsity jacket (Ten Yard Fight precursor? You tell me) and is absolutely RIPPING IT THE FUCK UP. And thusly do I now see the lineage that spawned the Carlton Dance. That this band performed this song in England in 1980 must mean they were feeding their American Graffiti obsession with an unending Ramones playlist, broken only by repeated viewings of The Juicy Fruits performing Goodbye, Eddie, Goodbye from Phantom Of The Paradise. Give it thirty seconds and you’ll buy the whole damn thing.
