@claudioepico Hola Claudio, Si te informàs un poco,antes de acusar,vas a encontrar,en la tapa del disco original en ATLANTIC RECORDS,que el tema està acreditado a Ricardo Soulé,con textos en inglés (aunque no una traduccion)de Danny Peyronel,teclista/voz de los HMK. Danny diò el crédito debido a Ricardo desde el vamos y,asi,este super tema pudo tener una repercusion internacional.Ricardo grabo una version de la version de Danny en su CD "Vuelta a Casa" del 2008 y cuenta la historia como fué.
I'm pleased people agree with my apprenticeship bit - the reason I pointed out Anthony Newley is because he was an actor as well as a singer. Gary Holton (and Michael Des Barres from Silverhead) had done their bit in acting AS WELL as singing - they were BRILLIANT performers cause of the acting bit.
We hear the same old CRAP on the radio every day - Steve Wright was talking today about a guitarist called 'Ian Gilmour'!!!!!! - this is the same bloke who thinks HMK is a parody - SACK THE BASTARD.
I think rock started dying in 74 - although UFO, Budgie and Lizzy kept the flag flying for a while. Nutz WERE an amazing live band - totally different to their dull records (what happened boys?) Saw the HMK/Nutz tour in 75 (already seen Nutz support Queen in 74 and their drummer (R.I.P.) knocked spots off Taylor (and I love Taylor) HMK were just incredible that night - Holton was amazing - and by the way - I'M BORED with Iggy Pop - chairman of the bored
As you can appreciate it is difficult to explain to the uninitiated what an amazing live act The Kids were, and for the past 30 odd years I have been trying to find another band that have been half as good.
I cannot comment on Nutz as they were one of the few band from that era that I somehow missed, but It seems that like The Kids, they could not recreate their live sound on record.
@roddy2548 - you're absolutely right about both bands (HMK and Nutz) not being able to get their live sound down on record - although Micky Most did try his best with the Kids and Kitsch is a classic. Check out Nutz on Youtube- 'nature intended' on the Whistle test - brilliant drumming kicks off a classic TV performance.
@NeilThompson30 I think that Kitsch had taken the edge of of HMK. It was no longer raw rock but turning into the bland power pop of certain bands. Mention no names, get into no trouble.
@hawkmoon03111951 - hmmm - I know what you mean but I actually prefer it to their first two albums. It WAS different - the first two tracks sound like Gabriel era Genesis in places!!! but I'm all for mixing madness with melody. Let's not fall out over this though - Bill Kenwright was on radio 2 last week talking about Anthony Newley being a better entertainer than most singers cause he was an actor. Holton and Michaeal Des Barres were brilliant performers cause they'd done their apprenticeship.
@NeilThompson30 No intention of falling out with you. You are entitled to your opinion, which I respect, though may not agree with. I agree with the apprenticeship bit. Bands used to have to work hard before they got acclaim. Came up through the pubs and small clubs, learning to work an audience and perfecting their skills.
Very good point about the apprenticeship's bands used to have to go through, so many now are playing large venues after their first album, it just does'nt make sense because as you rightly point out, they never get to learn out to work an audience...
@roddy2548 Like you I totally missed Nutz, not that i have been that impressed by them on you tube anyway. As you say the Kids were a 'Live' band. As far as I am concerned, in that period, the only other bands to touch them were Stray and SAHB (a personal view). Again my preference was for small clubs and theatres, not many big names played them in those days. Never was into stadium rock.
@TheHeavyMetalKids - John was killed in a car crash in Spain in 1983 just after Rage had split up. I saw Nutz three times and he was an incredible drummer.
Nutz were nobodies, HMK hold the record for selling out the Marquee, appeared on Top of the Pops and T.O.G.W.T, and Holton was included in Classic Rock magazine as one of the best frontmen ever
Members of The Clash, The Damned, Pistols, Banshees, Adverts etc have all admitted they followed the band, and were a big influence on their careers.
@roddy2548 - Ok - you go and base your opinions on what everybody else says and I will continue to think for myself. So HMK have all these credentials and had several albums on a major label and they STILL could barely give their records away. ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha - I rest my case.
Everyone knows that the HMK were essentially a live band, and could never hope to reproduce the sound on record, plus bad management ensured they never sold as many records as they probably should have done.
They were playing 300 gigs a year, all over the world between 73-77, and that's why they are still fondy remembered as a brilliant live act by people who were around at the time.
@roddy2548 - well said and I can accept that. Everyone has their 'private bands' - the underdogs we all like to champion.I've always carried the torch for Sir Lord Baltimore - greatest unheralded band of all time for me. Plenty can dump on them I'm sure, too - or wouldn't see what I see.
@bnfox1957 Unfortunately there weren't. Most were mediocre. The big bands from the sixties had either broken up or become a pale shadow of their former selves. There was no excitement. In the late 60's and early 70's I would be out watching bands about 4 or 5 nights a week. By 73 it was down to the occasional outing.
@hawkmoon03111951 - well I saw Black Sabbath, Humble Pie, Gentle Giant, UFO, Alice Cooper, Deep Purple, Mountain, The Good Rats, Foghat, King Crimson, Ursa Major, Budgie, New York Dolls, Blue Oyster Cult, David Bowie, Mott the Hoople, Led Zeppelin, Thin Lizzy,UFO and many others between those years and can safely say they all kicked serious ass...and every one of them completely smokes HMK.
@bnfox1957 We'll probably have to agree to disagree.I agree about Humble Pie and David Bowie, although his musical change of direction about 74 left me cold. Alice Cooper I would have liked to have seen but even he had lost his rocky edge by then. HMK were all about Gary Holton and to see them was to enter 'Gary Holton World', like the incredible Steve Marriott and Bowie he had charisma, most of those other bands did not have anyone like that. I respect your opinion though but it's not mine.
@hawkmoon03111951 -that's cool. I'm sure we could agree on this: sometimes I feel like rock died in 1973. There was lots of good stuff even up to now but something changed in 74 - like the way Purple and Sabbath invented pop metal, Alice smelled the money,and Budgie got funky. Seems like trying to placate a disco audience ruined everything.
@roddy2548 -like I wouldn't trust my own opinion? I don't need to read the reviews of Holton's adoring fans filling up Amazon, Youtube, or anything else - I actually decide for myself. He sounds funny and looks silly to me - like yours, just my opinion. Besides - everyone knows that Iggy is the greatest rock frontman in history.
@bnfox As you have stated earlier it all comes down to personal preference in the end. The difference though is that Nutz were just a rock and roll band, like all the rest. HMK were anarchic, poked fun at themselves, raucus and loud. Personally I didn't rate Iggy at all. Lots do though. Maybe Holton and Iggy are too British and American for us and we relate to our own culture best. I wouldn't say that Holton was the best frontman ever but he was a real character.
@hawkmoon03111951 -I'll take it a step further - like many posting here, I'm around 50, play music myself, and have over 40, 000 records. I don't see and hear what HMK's fans hear - I've listened to the records and listen again here - I still don't hear it. It doesn't make me wrong - my criteria are different. To me, nearly everything is second rate compared to Hendrix, Beefheart and Coltrane. The ridiculous here is not me - it is those that suggest 70-74 sucked except for this band?? ha ha ha
@hawkmoon03111951 -"I wouldn't say that Holton was the best frontman ever but he was a real character." Now that is a fair statement and I can go with that.In the context of that statement, I can completely agree - he has something and that is undeniable. The description of anarchic, raucous, etc obviously could be applied to nearly every band between those years - all great qualities. I will never have any patience for anyone who would suggest that Holton has anything over Steve Marriot.
@hawkmoon03111951 -and I might add that , for me, Nutz was far more than just a rock and roll band although I do understand how you mean it. I agree that they had no captivating frontman by any stretch, but I find their music far more interesting and original than anything by HMK. It's one of those things where I could never explain to those who didn't agree with me, why I love Cheap Trick and can't stand AC/DC. Or why I love the first Queen album but don't care for the rest.Weird.
Great band - big influence on me, the first band I saw where you were actually scared to stand too close to the stage, lot's of attitude. Dave Parsons (SHAM 69)
the 2 nino ferrer s album he did with heavy metal kids( called "leggs" for contractual reason) are" Nino Ferrer and Leggs"( 1973) and "Blanat"(1979) Barclay records. Micky does such a great job( listen "l arbre noir" there is a guitar chorus...wonderfull!)
In the first album it s Micky Finn who play guitars( he played in france for Nino ferrer and Jacques Higelin and with steve Marriot ..)The heavy metal kids played also 2 great albums for Nino Ferrer...
