Venus by Shocking Blue: Guitar, Bass & Songwriting Insights

"Venus" by Shocking Blue is a prime example of 60s psychedelic pop, featuring a catchy guitar riff played by Robbie van Leeuwen. The song's distinctive sound is achieved through the use of a fuzz pedal on the guitar, giving it a gritty and distorted tone. Mariska Veres' sultry vocals and the driving bassline by Klaasje van der Wal complete the infectious groove of the song. "Venus" topped the charts in multiple countries in 1969, solidifying Shocking Blue's place in music history.
