Bunker Hill - Hide and Go Seek, Pt. 1 download song

I am one of the few people I know of who bought the 45 back in 1962. great party song!

This was big in the London mod scene in 1963 - long before Hairspray. Memories of seeing Eric Clapton dancing to this in the Scene Club.

The early 1960's was unfortunately dominated (in popular music) by producers, orchestras and choruses, etc. which took so much excitement out of recordings. "Tunes" like this one were on the cutting edge of wild R&B.

This song reminds me of my favorite episode of Andy Griffin when the Darling Family is harrassed by Ernest T. Bass and he serenades Charlene with some song, and for some reason, even the words aren't the same, this song reminds me of Ernest T. Bass singing.:))

Now THAT'S Hip Hop

I liked this song. How refreshing that they wouldn't say "hell" because it was a bad word. I'll listen to this any time over today's profanity-laced urban music.

I have been looking for this song since I saw Hairspray SOOOOO many years ago. I didn't know the title. I was just able to figure out the lyrics & googled them.

Brilliant track don't know what he's singing about but hey who cares, great record. This record really tickles me and makes me laugh. Oh brilliant it gives me a lift love it.

One of the strangest, and wildest, hits of the early '60s. Huge in the DC/Baltimore markets; that's why it got into the original "Hairspray". "Bunker"/David was one of the most unusual guys to chart- gospel shouter/boxer/pre-hip-hop artist. He recorded this at Link Wray's "shack" on the Eastern Shore. To me, this is an off-the-wall take-off on Gary "U.S." Bonds' party-rock hits- but much crazier! The info above is correct- old-time champ Archie Moore trained in Baltimore during his reign and fought many non-title bouts there. David's work in the ring must have made him electric in person and in those gospel groups! Too bad there's no film of the guy. I'll bet he made James Brown look like a crooner!

Ooooh, The Dirty Boogie!

I remember this song from "Hairspray", the ORIGINAL AND THE BEST version with Divine and Ricki Lake, and I thought this was probably the best song in the whole movie, and I was so pissed when Mrs. Pingleton came in and put a kabosh to it!!! Took me almost twenty five years to figure out what the heck this song was. I bought the soundtrack to the movie and OF COURSE, this song was NOT on it!!!!!!!!!!!!! :( After some serious searching I finally found it. LOVE!! LOVE!!! LOVE IT!!! I like Joan Jett's version, too. My cousin has a goat, and whenever I visit him, and his goat is walking around, I always sing the line, "if you ain't hid you better holla billie goat", and she looks at me with blank eyes. LOL!!!

Thank you to the original "Hairspray." This song is wild. I was so mad this song was not on the soundtrack. One of the best songs featured in the movie; terrific beat! I'm 42 years old but the music of the '60s was great!

This song was in the original Hairspray!!!! Great song and movie!!

my favorite song when I was 12, had the 45, and listened to it all the time. used to stomp around to the beat, now I'm old, just sit and pat my foot.

I still have the 45--first heard it in 1964--never gets old!

Went to the record store and bought "Hide and Seek" on 11/22/63.  Never forget the day JFK was shot.
