The Baboons
Drinkin' Gasoline (2011)
What's Belgium famous for? It's the HQ of the EC, so that's either a good thing or very bad, depending on your viewpoint. What do I think? Do you have to ask? What else? Top marks to them for Jacques Brel, Herge's Adventures of Tin Tin and their lovely chocolate. Plastique Bertrand was a larf, too. Er...Rene Magritte (nice) and Hercule Poirot (oh hum). Now, I can report that we can thank the Belgians for a very fine rockabilly outfit called The Baboons. No, it's true and this is the video to prove it. Pretty darned good, I say.

Oh yes! I love it! Sort of early Elvis meets the Stray Cats. Wanna quiff my hair up now.
Thanks for finding and sharing this!
Is it just me or do the shots of the car on the straight road remind anyone else of the Bolan/Ringo scenes on the runway in Born to Boogie?
Hmmm, just me then.
Good find.
Cool, eh? Is that flaming piss? There IS something reminiscent of the Born To Boogie car scene, so it's not just you, Mr. Swede. Let's all quiff!
Salad cream and Chips....Hey! hey! we're the Baboons! and we are Babooing around!
