Ganip Ganop – Toot Toot Toot (Hear The Whistle Blow)


Ganip Ganop – Toot Toot Toot (Hear The Whistle Blow)/ The Toot Toot Song –Polydor 421497 (1969 French issue)

Just to alleviate the heaviness of Bonehead, I give to you Toot Toot Toot- an enthralling Bubblegum ditty that is as dumb as it is disposable. Totally infectious it hits all the spot a real Bubblegum classic should. In the sterling tradition of maximising the minimum; the B side is the A side but without the vocals. Ganip Ganop (anyone remember the game?) is the creation of Howard Bogess and Neil Goldberg (who were also behind Linus and The Little People) and on this evidence they have nothing to envy from Resnick/Levine...

I certainly remember the game - parents hated it because it was faurly noisy. If I recall correctly it was spelled "Gnip Gnop" and the band is probably spelled differently to avoid a lawsuit.

Thanks for all the great singles. I ended up being outbid on every one of your eBay crop, but I'll sock away some cash for next time...
