As a child I had the coolest parents ever! They would have regular parties and I remember clearly dancing to this with my Mom as she would bounce me up and down wildly, the 70s were so innocent and such happy times 😊

Very reminiscent of Sweet. Also a bit of Gary Glitter in it. This is awesome. I am also reminded of Barry Blue singing Saturday Night by this track. Really cool old memories of the 70s which was a very different era. More chilled and relaxed than our modern times for sure.

This song from Kenny was their first number one hit song called The Bump
I am dedicating this song to my old school friends who are both sisters as they told you both that I was dead as you will see for yourselves that I am still alive as it is to welcome you both back into my life forever as I hope to see you both again very soon to

@Pete1965

That's Tony Kenny he was contracted to record more songs but went back to Ireland without fulfilling the contract, so Barry Palmer was bought in to do the vocals on The Bump to finish the album that's who is singing on this track, The bump went up the charts but they had no Band to front the song so a band called Chuff were bought in and renamed Kenny who mimed to Barry Palmer singing The Bump.
Listen to the production on the original 12" album the sound is different to the rest of the track's recorded in 1975 it states Bump recorded 1974 hence the reason.
also to note it has been said same session Band as The Rollers album Rollin.
Andy the Drummer in Kenny told me that it is very unlikely there will ever be a Kenny Reunion, even though they are still friends they do their own thing.
