The early Hep Stars were not overly expert players, but they were enthusiastic performers. Hep Stars On Stage is a highly vigorous live album recorded on the Swedish folk park circuit in the August of 1965 and released in November 1965.
Most of the material played here are covers - a limitation which would drive Benny to write material for the group. Benny mainly plays electric organ here. The finale of Whole lotta shak-in' goin' on is perhaps the best of of the tracks - it features excited if not overly-expert playing on this track with emphasis on Christer Pettersson's drums and lots of electric organ.
The group performed some of their hits for this show: 2 from this LP and 2 from the latest singles:
- Wedding
- No response
- Sunny girl
- Whole lotta shak-in' goin' on
As the Sunny Girl single was released on 15 March 1966 and the Wedding single was released in May 1966 and the programme contains these songs, it can be suspected that this show was filmed around May 1966.
It is also highly likely to have been filmed in Germany given that there is a warning sign in the background in German "Ausgang bei Gefahr" (Exit in case of danger).
Next - Lördag i Stockholm (Benny) - 1966
Previous - Ohimennen - nuorten nonstop (Benny) - 1966

Sunny Girl
She's a sunny girl, a real girl
And no-one can declare
That she's something that I never needed
Never want to care for
She's a sunny girl, a real girl
That's why she's satisfying
She will never ask for anything but you
Ain't that a girl
She's domestic, she is property
She's slim like a reed
She's devoting she is faithful
Ain't that all you need
And I'm soaring like a feather
In a world I've just created
For a very simple reason
That is one - She's mine
She's a sunny girl, a real girl
And no-one can declare
That she's something that I never needed
Never want to care for
She's a sunny girl, a real girl
That's why she's satisfying
She will never ask for anything but you
Ain't that a girl
She's domestic, she is property
She's slim like a reed
She's devoting she is faithful
Ain't that all you need
And I'm soaring like a feather
In a world I've just created
For a very simple reason
That is one - She's mine.

No Response
I don't see through it, not a bit
Someone has found your heart to pieces
I try to take it as a hint (whit)
I had to make your love reason
That's no response, no reply
I will convince you, at least I try
But the expression in your eyes
Is like a big black curtain in my mind
My love is just the thing for you
It's like a heart of burning fire
No one has thrilled me like you do
You'll never make me to retire
That's no response, no reply
I will convince you, at least I try
But the expression in your eyes
Is like a big black curtain in my mind
Well, that's no response, no reply
I will convince you, at least I try
But the expression in your eyes
Is like a big black curtain in my mind
