Apparently Glam Rock was so popular in Holland it inspired enough copycat bands to fill a compilation album and give the genre its own name: Nederglam.
Most of them are pretty terrible but this is great, like a cut-price Suzi Quatro with a chorus that is Glam Rock distilled down to it’s pure essence. This was a big European hit in 1972 but not in the UK for some reason.

I thought some of the 80’s music videos gave you a “wtf” moment or two…
Their promo film / video for “Clap Your Hands…”
There’s gotta be a story behind it…
(catchy tune though, she’s also quite the looker!)
