1135.0. "Who Also Sang This????" by STRATA::JMELIA () Thu Apr 01 1993 13:41

    Hi all,
    
         Need some help with a famous cover tune from early 70's. The
         million dollar question is, Did the Trogs ( you know, the band
         that sang Wild Thing!!) every do a version of 'Love That Dirty
         Water'??? The Standell's did the original version but I think
         the Trogs did one as well.
    
         A few quid riding on the answer!!!  Thanks!!!!

  Don't know about the Troggs, but the Inmates did a version in the 70s
  (didn't they?)

    Dirty Water is really standard fare for sixties-oriented garage/R&B
    bands. I think I recall the Count Bishops doing a Standells song, but I
    don't remember if it was Dirty Water or another one.

    I have a lot of Troggs LPs and have never seen a Troggs' "Dirty Water".
