thanks tubedougz! this is on my favoritres now. when the dooleys hit the big time punk had just come out most of my mates were into punk but i liked some of the dooleys songs as well but darnt tell them can you imagine the ridicule. but what the heck!!!!
I know all about ridicule. Not only do I like the Dooleys but I liked Dollar, The Nolans, Bucks Fizz and The Bee Gees!!
Just like Punk, these are songs of and groups of our time. That can't be bad. I wonder what today's kids will be looking back on? I cannot see anything or anybody that's truly iconic - apart from PlayStations perhaps!
old fart? me and you both mate i to like doller i remember buying shooting star great track. my favorite nolans track is chemistry and love the bee gees! like you say they are the tracks of our years. and unlike some of todays music will always be played on the airwaves!!! thanks mate keep up the good taste!!!!!
thanks mate . as ive said my fav nolans track is chemistry 2nd fav track attention to me mmmm coleen nolan now were talkin!! and legs and co. what can i say.. you would sit there on thursday night waiting for totp wandering what they would be wereing or not wereing as the case may be!!ah those were the days!! lol!
Our country didnt rely much of whoever it is that on the charts, but ask any person in Manila if they knew "body language" and they will answer you the Dooleys hit complete with dancestep and lyrics. I am serious. The Dooleys' Body language song is part of our history and its still is today.
I'm a new 'youTube' user, I joined today (Thurs-03-01-08), The Dooleys were the 2nd act I looked at (1st being Falco as I happend to be listening Amadeus at the time)I was 8 in '76, I had 'the hots' for kathy then & when I look at the pic's/Videos I can see why, so sexy. How I love 70s music. Now to leave the same type of comment about Eve Graham from the New Seekers!!!
A great band very underated, their music is timeless, Love Of My Life being my favourite, very melodic sound, thanks to the Dooleys the 70s and 80s were great, nice to know their all doing fine in 2007.
Thanks for giving Sony BMG the kick up the arse it needed. I've got this feeling that if I go and buy it, the staff in HMV are going to laugh at me, so I guess I'll have to do it incognito. Mike S.
Great! Thanks for posting! The Dooleys really were vastly underrated. Brilliant live musicians. And the first western group to play behind the Iron Curtain!
Aw man, Top Of The Pops was so important to us back then. We simply HAD to know who was at number one every week, it was very important to our lives. Nowadays I don't think even the kids really care, we sure don't. The Dooleys are in there with all my other fave 70's memories, like Look-In magazine. Oh, and I agree, Kathy Dooley was a honey.
I live in North Wales. The only stereo radio broadcast that we could tune in to over here in the 1980's was RTE 2 FM from Dublin. I used to listen to the Irish Top 30 from 2pm to 5pm every Sunday and then tune into the BBC Top 40 (in mono!) to see what band was where in the charts. Essential to my very existence!
The D's were grossly under-rated. Their show featured LIVE musicians & great vocalists (things missing in todays image-obsessed pop). They were pure cabaret which went against them being taken seriously in the music business, but were crowd pleaser. The Dooleys won various awards. After a number of years effort They have a UK "Best Of" cd and Japan release "Singles Collection". All we need now is for them to get back together to perform those classics from 3 decades ago.
Thanks for your nice comment. I appreciate comments like yours. I wonder if our friends will ever perform again? It would be nice and I for one would attend the concert!
Brilliant brought back so many memories saw them at the Heart of the midlands in Nottingham 1979 (now Rock City)

What a refreshing comment!
My fave Nolans track was Attention To Me - closely followed by Chemistry actually!
Ooohhhh! I used to get a hard-on whenever they were on Top Of The Pops! Them and Legs & Co. No doubt about my sexuality then?
LOL!

Funny how everyday things in one country become somehow culturally ingrained in another part of the world! Strange.
