We were all saddened to hear that Chip Taylor had passed away. Perhaps best known as the songwriter of the Troggs’ 1966 anthem “Wild Thing,” Chip played Hardly Strictly in 2005 and 2006 with longtime collaborator Carrie Rodriguez.
Ride on, Chip Taylor - we’re going to miss you.

Chip Taylor är alltså död. Så oerhört trist. Hans fru Joan gick bort i somras. Och hans senaste platta, som handlade just om hur han bearbetade den sorgen, kom ut alldeles nyligen.
Såg honom live tillsammans med Carrie Rodriguez i Växjö för ett antal år sedan. En fantastiskt fin konsert.

I had the honor of seeing him perform at the Hole in the Wall in Austin during the one & only SXSW I ever attended in 2001 which was a #Guitartown field trip of sorts. Much love to all his family, friends & fans.

Deeply saddened to hear that the great Chip Taylor has passed. A songwriter cut from the finest cloth but more importantly a decent human being and good friend of Ireland. Full tribute on the country show to come. God bless ya Chip! #ChipTaylor
I’m sure the eagle-eyed spotted that Chip Taylor wrote “Wild Thing.” His three-chord, primal garage rock classic was made famous by the Troggs in 1966. #ChipTaylor #TheTroggs #WildThing #OneHitWondered
Chip Taylor? He’s an old friend around here… As one half of the 🇺🇸 folk-pop duo Just Us, Chip earned US #OneHitWonder honors in 1966 with “I Can't Grow Peaches on a Cherry Tree.” The single only spent two weeks on the US #Billboard #Top40, peaking at #34. #ChipTaylor #JustUs #OneHitWondered
"Angel of the Morning" is a #popular song written by #ChipTaylor, originally recorded by #EvieSands but which first charted with a version by #MerrileeRush. The song has been covered by many artists including #ChrissieHynde, #DustySpringfield, #PPArnold, #ConnieEaton, #MaryMason, #GuysnDolls.
#QuickSidenote In 1968, Merilee Rush & The Turnabouts earned US #OneHitWonder honors with the Chip Taylor-penned “Angel of the Morning.” The single spent 12 weeks on the US #Billboard #Top40, peaking at #7. #ChipTaylor #MerileeRush #OneHitWondered
#QuickSidenote Oh, did you think that The Troggs put out the original version of “Wild Thing?” Think again… It was originally recorded and released by the 🇺🇸 rock band the Wild Ones in 1965... but the single didn’t go anywhere. #ChipTaylor #TheWildOnes #OneHitWondered
#QuickSidenote Obviously, “Wild Thing” is widely considered the most famous single written by Chip Taylor… while he did write other highly successful and well-known songs, "Wild Thing" has achieved iconic status in rock and roll history. #ChipTaylor #TheTroggs #OneHitWondered
