Cadillac - Hep stars
Released 1965 -Big hit in Sweden and Norway
Original Key: A major
A cover of the Renegades hit (in Finland) from 1964. Which was based on the Vince Taylor's
"Brand New Cadillac".
I have tabbed the intro and the first line of verse 1. Note in the end tag the the bass riff
is similar but not identical to the Peter Gunn theme. The organ plays the bass riff with the
left hand and an A major chord with the right.
