The original
Everybody who grew up in Sweden in the 1970s is familiar with ”Hey baberiba!”. My children only know it as ”Smurf baberiba” and asked about its origins. I realised it probably was not original with Rockfolket either and did a bit of googling and found that it is in fact an old Lionel Hampton piece: “Hey-Ba-Ba-Re-Bop”. It swung even then.

Rockfolket's drummer Burken used to drive the school bus around my area.
Did I say drummar? Lead singer! Lead singer!
And accordionist, let us not forget that.
It makes me feel good that you can run into rock stars on the school bus. :-)
