Long Green/ Light in the Window

This terrific single is a garage/party outing in the mold of "Farmer John" by the Premiers. The song, a spot-on sketch of money as "the root of evil," was first recorded by the Kingsmen as the B side of 'The Jolly Green Giant,' but frankly the Fireballs version is superior, a rave-up that earns our highest recommendation: 2 stars. Note: The A side label on this promo copy has a light stain (see scan).
