FANCY NANCY

And here's the other non-album single appearing as a bonus in the CD reissue of Supersister's debut album Present from Nancy (1970). If 'Spiral Staircase' annoys me by its "horror humour", 'Fancy Nancy' annoys me with a 50's rock and roll imitation, up to silly Elvis Presley manners in the vocals. Luckily it's very short, under two minutes.

'Gonna Take Easy' continues in the humorous direction, this time reminiscent of Frank Zappa's parodic songs (that I dislike). I don't like the tinkling piano either. There's some nice organ for a little while. Over-extended in nearly three minutes, judged against the musical substance, this throwaway song is something I prefer forgetting.

I am being kind and give a second star for this Dutch band not taking themselves too seriously and toying around with various styles, even though my personal rating would be one star for the annoyment.
