Go for the shades and the beany hat - summer's here! Sunny African
rhythms, flamenco guitars and it's "hey, senorita, you playa the
frisbee?" Exhilarating stuff and the rousing chorus of
"wo-wo-ee-yeh-yeh" is easy enough for even me to remember. ("Extra gold
star for really silly name" - Reg the Spin-drier). (Mark Steels, Smash Hits, June 9, 1983)
... Or, the United Nations play flamenco. The five members of Jimmy The Hoover come from different parts of the globe and very different cultures, but the feel of this record is pure Hispanic. It's a lovely single - pretty, poppy, sweet and fresh. Not as tropical as The Kid, but a million miles from the likes of Modern Romance. (Maureen Rice, No 1, June 4, 1983)
