Saturday Music Post - Glad All Over

(That is precisely how I do not feel these days, given the political situation, but I queued this up last summer.)

In 1964, The Dave Clark Five's "Glad All Over" became the first British Invasion hit by a group other than the Beatles. Written by Dave Clark and Mike Smith, it reached number 6 on the U.S. Hot 100. To me, the song is most memorable for the interplay between Smith's vocal and Clark's drum riff: "I'm feelin' -- bam bam -- "glad all over." One reviewer aptly described the track as a "happy-go-lucky pounder."

There were surprisingly few covers, so I included a couple of surprises at the bottom of today's post at The Faculty Lounge.
