In Arica.. Chile... How much memories of my youth.. i was 13 years old.. I just we couldn't wait to get home from school to see on TV.. Musica Libre! To all my generation friends! I love you guys!
i agree with every body. It's amazing till you see this track how well they can all sing.I long for the 70's to re emerge again but it's an era that will be lost for ever just like many good thing's

This is a wonderful song . I think this is one band where all the members are good looking . It's amazing how these boys get so high in vocal pitch when they sing .
They sound like angels . It really is sweet . Timeless .
Ooohhh, The Rubettes ! Oooooh Alan ! How I love you All ! Too poor to buy your records, when I was young, it makes me cry, now to remember of those hours dreaming to meet you (all), to see you just a few minutes, only ! It would have been the biggest happiness of my entire life.
I was born in 1951, so almost the same age than Alan, John... and who else ?
(Don't pay attention to my english, I'm a frenchie living near PARIS.
two of that band had an affair with gary glitter thats a fact. and the cunt with the cap who looks backward had a fling with engelburt humperdink. my mate knew their roadies. they were perverts
to scoobi25. i can watch wot i want. and i am not a bigot far from it. i have a opinion. and i voiced it. so you can try to censor me if you want. but its my opinion and a lot of other people, that this band are utter shite ok. so there you are.
Alan Williams sang lead vocals, including the falsetto parts, here on `Tonight`, `Juke Box Jive` (one note higher than the highest note on Sugar Baby Love) and `I Can Do It`.
The band re-recorded all the tracks for Top Of Pops appearances as required by Musicans Union rules at that time.
The TOTP version of Sugar Baby Love is Alan Williams miming to is own voice
There are numerous in concert clips of the band performing live in concert on youtube.
Hiya, I think you are right there but is it not the case that on the original record there was another bloke singing the falsetto part?
Just for the doubters by the way I saw the band last year and Alan Williams is hitting the entree to Sugar Baby Love..no problem..if he can do it now he sure as shit could do it back then..
No, it's not the case. Alan Williams sang all lead vocals on 'Tonight'.
You're thinking of 'Sugar Baby Love' which was sung by session singer Paul Prewer (stage name Da Vinci) before the band even existed.
Alan Williams indeed has a remarkable vocal range. He also sang the falsetto part on 'Juke Box Jive' which is actually 2 notes higher than the highest note in 'Sugar Baby Love'.
Thanks for the correction, I was referring to Sugar Baby Love. It seems impossible that the falsetto on 'Juke Box Jive' is 2 notes higher than that of 'Sugar Baby Love'..somehow my memory has told me there aint NOTHING can get higher than that! But I listened to it non stop as a child and it is kind of seared into my brain. I'll have to listen to both tracks again..Just watched the 'Never Too Young To Rock" clip, brill!..do you know if it is out on DVD? I bought a useless DVD from a fan club.
Yes, that is correct. I was a huge Rubettes fan - not popular with many for their early suited & capped appearance. Alan Williams did indeed "do" the lead vocals on Tonight, Juke Box Jive, I Can do it, Fo Dee O Dee, Little Darling but, around this time, Tony Thorpe ably filled that roll - check out Baby I Know for a slice of country. Very polished. Still think Under One Roof is one of the best things they did
fuck off you lying cunt. go and listen to juke box bollocks you shithouse
