One of the Greatest Songs ever made !!!!!!  you'll enjoy this one. "searching for some happiness' in Little Green Bag.

they're actually a Dutch band. George Baker just a stage-name to sell internationally

This is another Video from 1970. Absolutely Terrible video (as all were in those days), where while making the first years of music videos.... they had NO IDEA what to film so they were just walking around and smoking stuff, and drinking for the Video !!! hahaha  enjoy !! there's even a nice horse in it lol.

Lookin' back on the track for a little green bag
Got to find just the kind for losin' my mind
Outta sight in the night, outta sight in the day
Lookin' back on the track, gonna do it my way
Outta sight in the night, outta sight in the day
Lookin' back on the track, gonna do it my way
Look back
Lookin' for some happiness, but there is only loneliness to find
Jump to the left, turn to the right
Lookin' upstairs, lookin' behind
Lookin' for some happiness, but there is only loneliness to find
Jump to the left, turn to the right
Lookin' upstairs, lookin' behind
Yeah
Lookin' back on the track for a little green bag
I got to find just the kind for losin' my mind
Outta sight in the night, outta sight in the day
Lookin' back on the track, gonna do it my way
Lookin' back on the track for a little, little green bag
Got to find just the kind for losin' my mind
Lookin' for some happiness, but there is only loneliness to find
Jump to the left, turn to the right
Lookin' upstairs, lookin' behind
Alright
Lookin' for some happiness, but there is only loneliness to find
Jump to the left

Great song.

Johannes "Hans" Bouwens (born 8 December 1944), known as George Baker, is a Dutch singer and songwriter who, with his band George Baker Selection, scored three international hits; "Little Green Bag" (1969), "Paloma Blanca" (1975) and "Santa Lucia by Night" (1985).

seems he has lost his weed Maxi.😆😂 stored in a little green bag some where and can't remember where he put it.

Great tune you can sing anytime in the shower or whereever, has some amateur dance moves.  while ya doing house chores,  or some great bass guitar work that is easy for novices, or if a complete learner musician , you just get a Tambourine and smash it along easy enough to the tune.     Hope he finds his stash soon !!! 🎶

He certainly had a distinctive voice, LB, though I wouldn't rate it as one of the greatest songs ever made. If poor Hans hasnt found his stash yet, he may be running out of time. Turns 80 in December.

This is the other song Max recalls from his mis-spent yoof.

One of my fave Neil Young songs done by Dave Matthews and friends

 

Love that song. Interestingly, Neil's version was banned in Spain during General Franco's regime.

And another classic. Pretty sure that is Bryan Ferry from Roxy Music on harmonica.

 

Jimmy 'Z' Zavala (born July 12, 1955) is an American musician. He is notable for playing harmonica on the Eurythmics song "Missionary Man" and performing with the band live.
