NAMASTE: GABBA GABBA HEY !

GABBA GABBA HEY !

Ce n'est pas un scoop, les Ramones ont fait des petits un peu partout sur la planète avant de s'esquiver prématurément vers les étoiles. Les albums Tribute ont commencé à se succéder à la mort de Joey (Jeffry Hyman) puis avec celle de Dee Dee (Douglas Colvin) et Johnny (John Cummings). Tommy serre les miches et va bien, merci. Je me suis mis à fouiner parmi les compilations de covers pour en retenir deux qui ont l'avantage de regrouper des musicos de divers horizons.

Havana Affair

PT-boat on the way to Havana
I used to make a living, man
Pickin’ the banana
Now I’m a guide for the CIA
Hooray for the USA!
Baby, baby, make me loco
Baby, baby, make me Mambo
Sent to spy on a Cuban talent show
First stop- Havana au go-go
I used to make a living, man
Pickin’ the banana
Hooray for Havana!
