Dick Stock comes full circle - thewolfdogg - 05-19-2009
I realized this a while ago, but after that whole ear worm bit (podcasting pushes me a few days back) I figured now is a good time to post this revelation.
So two headliners for dick stock:
Melanie performing her hit "Brand New Key"

and British Supergroup, The Wurzels playing "The Tractor Song"
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZsL9E0D6wI[/youtube]
so I went on wiki to see what other hits from them I may have actually heard of (I deserve a stupid siren for that) but then I came across this gem.
Quote:The Wurzels (originally Adge Cutler and the Wurzels but renamed The Wurzels after Cutler's death) are a British Scrumpy and Western band.[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btEpF334Rtc[/youtube]
This Somerset based band is best known by many people for its 1976 number one hit "The Combine Harvester", but has a history stretching over 40 years, and still performs to this day.
That's right... their best known song is a freakin parody of Melanie's song
