I've loved this one ever since I lived in Europe back in the '70s. Shearston reached #7 (Oct/74) on the British chart and ultimately became a U.K. One-Hit Wonder, but what a great cover of Cole Porter, it's hard to stop listening to this! Most in North America probably never heard it as it never charted here, and though Shearston was native to Australia, the highest "Kick" charted there was locally in Adelaide (#11). For years I'd wondered what he said at 3:04 and there has been much debate over it. I finally found the answer a few years ago on the Pop Archives website out of Australia, it's in a quote from Phil Chapman, who worked in the production of Shearston's album: "...for spontanaeity I left in the end ad-lib mentioning the name of his girlfriend, KRISTIANA MARIA KONCHEVSKY..." R.I.P. Gary

Lots of truly great artists have made memorable versions of this Cole Porter classic. And who can deny that Sinatra sung it brilliantly? But, for me, Gary Shearston's wonderful rendition is up there with the best of all treatments of this beautiful song.Gary's voice and the orchestration, the magnificent violin solo towards the end, and then that boom boom boom of the drums in the final stages of the song make it so magical. I could listen to it over and over again and never tire of it.

How wonderful is this tune? I used to play it so much when it came out. The melody is amazing and the way he sings it is so different. It totally stands the test of time.
