Written by super group Abba's Benny and Bjorn, "Funky Feet" had been recorded and released a year before the Australian duo The Studs made the Top 10 with the catchy tune. Svenne & Lotta, a Swedish husband/wife pairing inherited the song from Abba, after the latter decided it was too similar to "Dancing Queen" and chose not to memorialise it for themselves. In 1976, the Australian retro trio The Silver Studs had scored hits with their version of "Happy Days" and "Dance with a Dolly (with a hole in her stockings) before "Funky Feet" and a one third lighter group struck it big with this Top 10 smash. A sleeper, released in June of '77, it took 6 months to ride the Top 40, having peaked at #10 in the Spring, and was still in the charts at year's end. They were to return with "Dr Bop", before fading away. I have extended the song to get a bit more fun and vitality from this rare gem. Enjoy!
