History
I found an earlier version (1966): http://www.luma-electronic.cz/lp/p/Phillipss/phillips_singin.htm
So what's the original?
yours!
the great El Tigre
written by: Cy Coben
original: Tompall and The Glaser Brothers
released in 1968 on the album Through The Eyes Of Love - MGM Records SE-4510
was covered as El Bandido
in Dutch
by Will Tura
translation: Nelly Bijl / Van Aleda
release: 1966 ep: El Bandido
an original from 1968 while the cover was released in 1966 ??? guess New Year's Eve took it's toll
yours!
Any arguments why you think Stu Phillips did the original?
PS: It's July now so I hope you've recovered from New Year's eve
