1968 German 7" Mendocino

    Mendocino 2.32 (Sahm/Holm)/Es könnte möglich sein [Cutey Girl] 2.20 (Moroder/Holm) (Ariola 14 346 AT)
Eine Stop International Produktion. Music on the A-side written by Doug Sahm, German words by Michael Holm. Demski told me this: "It was a cover version of the same titled hit single by "Sir Douglas Quintet" (# 27 early 1969 in the U.S.).". Moroder in New Musical Express 9 Dec 1978: "I was quite lucky, I had my first hit as a composer about six months after I started writing all the time, with a German song in '68.  Then all the good songs were coming from England and America and so for some time I didn't try to compete by writing in English. My music was typically continental - nothing like, say, The Beatles. I was happy to have a hit, but my intention was always to compose with an English or American feeling."
