Description:
Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress" was a song by the rock and roll group, The Hollies, and released on February 1, 1972 as a single on the Parlophone Records label.It was released soon after Allan Clarke, who was featured on lead guitar as well as lead vocal had left the group, from their album "Distant Light" (1970). As the group had just left EMI/Parlophone and signed with Polydor, they did not promote the song. However it became a No. 2 hit in the United States, their greatest ever singles success there. It was inspired and in the style of the rock and roll group Creedence Clearwater Revival, and on being reactivated by EMI in Britain a few months later, it reached No. 32.The song is notable in that it features Clarke playing rhythm guitar, something he rarely did (Clarke came up with the song's signature guitar rhythm that opens the song).Taken from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_Cool_Woman_in_a_Black_Dress

May 20, 2012 - I had this on an EPIC label 45 (Canadian release)... Would put support arm off to one side so it would play over and over... it was another one of those tracks were I'd lay on the floor between the speakers of the big old Philips console and just have it cranked out!

May 25, 2012 - "I'm 19 years old and I think people must think It's really cool when a 19 year old hates on modern music even though I'm actually just too stupid to find the good modern music that does in fact exist."

May 29, 2012 - Youtube just put an ad in the middle of this song. If that keeps up this will pretty much be the end of listening to songs on Youtube. At least there is groove shark.
