THERE AIN'T NO AGE FOR ROCK'N'ROLL (EXTENDED CD MIX) - VETERANS

THE VETERANS WERE FROM BELGIUM AND THEY HIT IT BIG IN 1979 WITH THEIR CATCHY POP HIT "THERE AIN'T NO AGE FOR ROCK 'N ROLL". THEY HAD ANOTHER TRACK CALLED "I'M JOGGING" WHICH DIDN'T ENTHUSE THE BUYING PUBLIC AND IT SANK QUICKLY WITHOUT A RIPPLE.

"THERE AIN'T NO AGE FOR ROCK 'N ROLL" WAS NUMBER ONE FOR A FEW WEEKS AND WAS HEAVILY PROMOTED BY MOLLY MELDRUM ON COUNTDOWN. THE ORIGINAL 7" MIX OF THE SONG HAS APPEARED ON CD IN GERMANY AND FRANCE, WHERE I PURCHASED THIS NICE CLEAR VERSION, BUT BECAUSE IT WAS SHORT, RUNNING JUST 3 MINS, I DECIDED TO GIVE IT THE TOM MIX TREATMENT AND MADE AN EXTENDED VERSION THAT RUNS OVER 5 MINS.

ENJOY!

  3. Can you tell me more about the Veterans? They seem to have gotten all their English stereotypes right in the filmclip for 'There Ain't No Age for Rock n Roll'?
