Guitarist Eddie Phillips used a violin bow, a technique later made popular by Jimmy Page. The single was a minor hit in the UK but was far more successful in mainland Europe where the band had a string of successes.[2] "Painter Man" was later covered in 1979 by pop group Boney M. and reached number 10 in the UK Singles Chart. The song was included on their 1978 album Nightflight to Venus and had been released in mainland Europe as the double A-side "Rasputin"/"Painter Man" in 1978.[3] In the UK the song was, however, given A-side status and also released as a 12" single in clear red and clear yellow vinyl. The song was also covered by British post-punk band The Television Personalities, appearing on their 1982 album They Could Have Been Bigger than the Beatles.[4] TriviaA young citizen from the former GDR recognized the song in 1969 during a contest by the West German AM station Europawelle Saar, where the listeners were requested to send a card with the song title and band to win the single. He sent off a postcard, which was intercepted by the Stasi and resulted in permanent surveillance until 1989. In 2013, after he got his Stasi reports, he sent the card again and, during the celebration of "50 years Europawelle" in 2014, he finally received his prize[5].
