Talk about Bette Davis And The Balconettes - Shergar


Shou
This song was a #14 Festive Fifty on the John Peel show and was by far the most famous song by the band. John Peel loved it!
Bulace
"Shergar" was originated by the half-American drummer Norwood as a William Tell influenced galloping horsey drumroll ode to early Clint Eastwood's "Rawhide" television series, complete with intermitant "yeehaws!" and "yahoos!". Upon hearing this, Sam the vocalist cleverly morphed this masterpiece into "Shergar" (The Wonder Horse). The song made it's debut 7 May '96 at the Manchester Roadhouse. A few days before the gig, the band plastered Wilbraham Road with fliers bearing the infamous horse-head profile of Shergar as used by the IRA amidst great laughter. Only a few weeks later, the IRA bombed Manchester city centre.
