I heard this one for the first time during Baby Driver. Quite the perfect soundtrack during that chase scene, quite the supercool song in general.

They had a habit of performing it at about 1.5x speed live, because places they were booked wanted a shorter song. The live versions are quite fun.

Did you know they were from Amsterdam?

Yep, I worked at Bertus Distributie, the biggest vinyl distributor in Europe, and got to know them through my work.

But never listened to their music because my-then-young mind thought it was ‘old people music’.

Ah, that takes me back. In the early 90's, WSSZ (now WHJB , but Classic Hits Z-107 at the time ) out of Greensburg, PA would play all kinds of songs WRRK and WDVE didn’t, including Focus, some of the longer Floyd cuts, Funeral for a Friend, and Inna Gadda Da Vida every Friday at 9.
