Twinkle Brothers and origin of the "ooga-chaka"
The Twinkle Brothers 1971 cover certainly includes a version of the signature "ooga-chaka," but I haven't found a source for the claim that it preceded, much less influenced, the King version. It seems likely, since the King version appears to have been released late in 1971 and it seems that King was aware of the reggae scene in Britain at the time, but a reference would be helpful, even just of an early 1971 release date for the Twinkle Brothers version.Improbabilimited (talk) 02:54, 23 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
