    Yes, it may well be. I heard on a cd-r i bought at jazzman's. It
    was listed as the *Kings* but it does say 'Party, Don't Worry
    about it' as the track title. You're right though, ithink, gerald's
    possibly renamed it slightly to throw people off the scent! This
    might also explain why he said it would cost me so much to buy.
    The tune i'm talking about starts with a bassline, and the drum
    hitting his sticks together. Then the drums come in proper with a
    guitar, and then a screeching hammond, just playing chords. So
    its the Queens then? Did NJKs do a version as well?
