Blam Blam Blam
Blam Blam Blam were a New Zealand pop/rock/alternative band. Tim Mahon (bass) and Mark Bell (guitar,vo) had been members of The Plague and The Whizz Kids. After losing their drummer Ian Gilroy to The Swingers in 1980, Tim and Mark joined up with Don McGlashan, a multi-instrumentalist who played drums and sang many lead vocals.
History
The band's first release was the song Motivation on the Propeller Records Class of 81 compilation album. They then released a four-track self-titled EP for the label, which hit the top 40 in New Zealand. The band had two hit singles in 1981 with There is no Depression in New Zealand, and Don't Fight it Marsha, It's Bigger than Both of Us (which McGlashan later re-recorded with The Mutton Birds).
In 1982 vocalist Dick Driver joined the band, but soon left. The band recorded an album Luxury Length, which reached No. 4. in the New Zealand charts. Later that year the band were involved in a car accident where Tim Mahon was seriously injured.
In 1984 the band briefly reunited, recording the live album The Blam Blam Blam story. Don McGlashan has since worked on a number of movie soundtracks, and been in the bands The Front Lawn, From Scratch, and The Mutton Birds, and recorded an album for Propeller Records with Ivan Zagni, who was a guest on Luxury Length. Tim Mahon and Mark Bell both played in Ivan Zagni's Big Sideways and Avant Garage groups. Tim Mahon has since worked in music management. Mark Bell works as a session guitarist and as a journalist.

A ella le gusta el Blam Blam, Blam, Blim, Blim y esta rebulera
Donde se mete forma un motin, cuando no quieren llevarsela
Siempre viene donde mi, sexual pero con un piquete Gansteril
Sera que yo le gusto por que soy un Gansta "Ohh, Ohh", Aparente
Mente eso le encanta cuando la Haya por el aire se levanta se
Exharta le facina verme en los videos,
Mientras mas calle me
Veo mas crecen sus deseos, le gusta el ruido que produce
Mi Glock, Glock se toma un par de shot y de la disco me rapta
Le gusta los Chavos, Las Prendas & La Pauta, por la noche le
Prendo pal de philli, que la parta
