Back in the 80s, the musical scene of Spain just blew up. Mostly because no more dictatorship yaaay.
It spawned a number of different scenes, and these dudes (Siniestro Total) personified the movement in Galicia. One of the hardest rock bands in Spain.
And in this particular song, they cover "Sweet Home Alabama". Obviously, their "sweet home" is Galicia, so technically their version is called "Miņa Terra Galega".

Well, now I know who The Like was channeling.
Those bird-cuts, though...
*edit* I can't find, like, ANY reference to that band's existence outside of that particular performance.

Posted because I know these individuals and this is awesome. Certainly much more enjoyable to listen to than the original.

Try googling "Whippersnappers Melbourne band" and you'll get some hits, including this. They weren't exactly big-time; I think their appearance on The Money Or The Gun was the zenith of an arc spent mostly playing local pubs and clubs in Melbourne. It was all rather before my time as a consumer of Australian music and media (I was still living in China), so I don't know.
And yeah, the video is pretty rubbish, isn't it? I wonder if one of the girls turned somebody down...
