Brinsley Schwarz - Surrender To The Rhythm download song

Nick Lowe is a musical genius. And yes, it was mentioned in passing when the NME reviewed Speak Like a Child about the similarities. And just how modish does Nick Lowe look here, in 1973!

'Speak Like a Child'.....Paul Weller, you naughty man ! This is a great song.

Love the harmony with "surrender" towards the end

The Jesus of Cool chewing gum during his TV debut.

down to the pub after this gets me in drinking mode every time

This is officially the most happy-making song of all time. Thanks boys!

Weller owes this man. Along with a few others...........

"I said we're doing all right, well we're doing okay-hay!!" Absolutely magnificent, cheers for posting.

I think BS were having a piss take on this recording - Ian Gomm is playing bass, Nick Lowe is on lead: a complete instrument reversal between the two of them. Great stuff. The vocals were live to their earlier pre recorded track. Brinsley himself is sat at the back on secondary keyboard, I missed that earlier on. Good band, nice songs. God bless em all. Quality

02:10 Nick is actually singing "The other song" of the lyric as he moves away from the mic. Extraordinary stuff.

Has anyone ever asked Mick Talbot about the keyboard melody on this track?

Great song! I bet Paul Weller heard this....he seems to like nicking tunes from others: 10538 overture by ELO springs to mind....

A darling of a song this one - and Nick Lowe,  great character & and a great singer :)

I love this harmony

I've been humming this tune for about thirty-five years.

More than just a shade of Do You Believe In Magic by The Lovin' Spoonful.
