A rhythmic, energetic pulse defines this clip from Marty Rhone's hit song 'A Mean Pair of Jeans.' This distinctive instrumental beat was actually inspired by Ansett flight attendants. If you listen closely, you can hear it: the relentless clip of the beat sounds just like the clack-clack of heels, striding through an airport.
'A Mean Pair of Jeans' was released in 1977 as the second single from Rhone's self-titled album, Marty Rhone. Although the album was released only in Germany outside Australia, this particular pop song has endured internationally, remaining his most popular track on streaming platforms today.
