Another GP that popped into my head the other day as an earworm, this track from 1976 is quite interesting for the following reasons:
- David Dundas is actually Lord David Dundas, the 4th Marquess of Zetland (wherever that may be)! His father, the 3rd Marquess of Zetland (also known as the Earl of Ronaldshay) was a British tennis player in the 1940s and played Wimbledon.
- 'Jeans On', Dundas' only big hit, started out as a commercial for Brutus Jeans (see also: 'I'd Like To Teach The World To Sing' by The New Seekers and 'Inside' by Stiltskin
- 'Jeans On' was sampled by Fatboy Slim for the track 'Sho Nuff'
- Dundas went on to score the cult movie 'Withnail & I'
