The rest of the album is far more disco and quite a bit weirder, tracks that stand out being cover versions of Funky Town, Rasputin, Another Brick in the Wall and an original track the title of which translates as May You Die In A Hail Of Bullets, or something like that.
Researching the post I discovered that the track should be credited to Louise Kennedy rather than Louis Kennedy and that it's basically a retread of Green Onions. So I wonder just how authentically Thai the whole thing is.
Louise Kennedy Pu Yai Lee (Chief Lee)
I am the artist who recorded "PuYai Lee" with a group called the "Sonics" in 1965. The song is a popular folk song that was reworked. We were able to accommodate the Thai language as well as the lyrics easily using "Green Onions". It was and continues to be a poplar rendition of the original folk song. Thanks for your interest.

Google "The Sonics and Puyai Lee". You will find their picture and other songs that they recorded. We all went to high school together in Bangkok in the '60's ! LEK
