Little Red Riding Hood skipping all the way to her wedding:: Sep 21, 2008 Little Red Riding Hood is a famous fairy tale about a young girl’s The Little Red Riding Hood costume is for any adult wanting to be a http://redhotbrides.com/blog/index.php/2008/09/21/little-red-riding-hood-weddingHOME | In the late 60's, Sam the Sham & The Pharoahs had a hit with Little
Red Riding Hood. My questions are: do I remember correctly that J
Geils/Peter Wolf covered this song quite successfully (in the late
70's I'm guessing?)? Or was it someone else who covered it and had the
cover hit? And whoever it was, what release is it on? I would like to
hear a clip of any results, but I sure do hear Peter Wolf's voice in
my head doing this song...
Could you be remembering The Standells' version?

The Billboard Book of Top 40 Hits doesn't show any version other than
the original through the year 2000, and the All Music Guide doesn't
show any cover recording by either the J. Geils Band or Peter Wolf.
Does this answer your question, or are you looking for someone to
track down the version you remember, even if it was neither a hit nor
recorded by the Geils Band or Wolf?
This is so interesting. This is what I will do. The Standells of
course had "Dirty Water" as a hit about the Charles in Boston, where I
lived for 5 years in the last half of the 70's, which may be why I
think of J Geils, although I cannot quite tell from the clip. So, I am
going to split the qestion, and accept The Standells (thanks once
again PinkFreud!) as the answer here. Efn, I would like it very much
if you could track down any other versions from that era; I wouldn't
be surprised if it wasn't a top 40; Boston was a hot rock community at
the time, and what was a hit there may not have been such a big deal
elsewhere. I will post question now. Thank you both for such a quick
response. Latest Little Red Riding Hood's Zombie BBQ Cheats - Nintendo DS:: This page offers the most up-to-date Little Red Riding Hood's Zombie BBQ cheats, codes, and hints.

Hello 1skee,
Love that dirty water .... Boston (okay, a suburb of Boston) was my
home too for several years.
Anyway, to make the answer official, I'll repost the link for The
Standells' album on Amazon, plus a link to another clip of their
version of "Lil' Red Riding Hood":

Although this album was recorded in 1966, it's possible that you
happened upon a Boston radio station that played lots of Standells.
(Did you know, by the way, that they were actually from Los Angeles?)
