I was born in 1972, I think I had never heard this song until this year (it never played in my country: Colombia) .. Now I can't get the song or this video out of my head
No sé si te entiendo bien pero sí llegó a Colombia, yo la escuché en 1974, en Bogotá, yo tenía 11 años. Y la emisora Radio Tequendama en Bogotá sacaba los éxitos de rock. Saludo.
This "1840" version was actually the one that got airplay in 1972, in central Germany at least. The lyrics are a lot clearer and coherent than the "1580" version. Les Humphries really outdid himself as far as the ethnic groups were concerned. They singers were from America, Germany, Africa, UK (Les Humphries)....in a certain way, the group was ahead of its time....and one tends to forget how POPULAR they were in EUROPE. John Lawton became lead vocalist of URIAH HEEP, "Free Me"
Редкое видео группы, на котором есть Барри Сент-Джон. Самая маленькая и самая голосистая. Советские слушатели её помнят по "Tell my why". А еще её голосом почти во всех клипах поет Эльвира.
De Toppop t-shirts waren een paar jaar geleden nog te verkrijgen via de toenmalige serie Toppop the Golden Years. Nu helaas niet meer nieuw te verkrijgen. Een telefoontje naar avro-tros kan misschien helpen
You get the distinct impression that some of the "performers" were hired to look cool on TV and didnt actually sing on the record. But i loved it as a kid :)
The melody is actually from the song The Battle of New Orleans written by the country singer Jim Driftwood, but I have to say that this version is more swinging and likable.
It was the Pop-Version of "Battle of New-Orleans"...There were some protestes in England because of the lyrics and may be a lawsuit with the owner of the copyrights, so the changed the lyrics...
Сейчас так не поют😊!) ЭТО Класс, учитесь!!!!

@@edgaralfonsoverabarrios5040 probablemente, pero durante gran parte de 1974 aún yo no cumplía los dos años, entonces difícil de acordarme, gracias 👌
@@gabyhelffhrittz Ah, pues claro. jaja. Bien.
I turn 40 next year and only discovered this song 2 nights ago. Can't stop playing it
I 'm born in 1972 too! 😄
Proper feel good song...thanks for the memories guys n gals
Музыка моей юности!
Кто из 70-х?
Я 74г.р, но не слышала эту песню.😅
Если бы ютуб мне не подкинул Джона Лоутона, так бы и не узнала о них)
В 70-х была гибкая голубенькая пластинка. На ней Мексико и ещё из их репертуара две песни. Но я тогда не знал название исполнителей.
Ellvira ist mit dabei👌Frankfurter Mädchen mit einer überragenden Stimme✊....ich liebe die L.H.S. und die 70er...
MEXICO MI PAIS!!!!!
Молодцы!! Здорово !

You're right, they actually said that in an interview ("No, she don't need to sing, we just need her hair color - so please bring your friend.")
Meanwhile proven: Chris Yim (the Asian with the long hair) was on stage all the time and never sang a note for he could not sing.

Во времена своей юности только слышал, а теперь случайно еще и увидел. просто и со вкусом + реклама спонсора на футболках.
Вот интересно, правда, как они к нам просочились?
Балкантон - ВТА 1633 "Световна Естрада" B1 Лес Хъмфрийз Сингърс Мексико
Пластинки болгарской фирмы "Балкантон" экспортировались в СССР. Но купить их было невозможно.
I've only heard this, and the single version that starts with "in 1580".
What's the 2nd version?
It was the Pop-Version of "Battle of New-Orleans"...There were some protestes in England because of the lyrics and may be a lawsuit with the owner of the copyrights, so the changed the lyrics...
still here in 2020

John Lawton!
Werkelijk onbestaanbaar....
Who was lead male singer with great moustaches and long dark brown hair?
Is John Lawton of Uriah Heep here?
Да, его бас-гитара в этой записи. Покойся с миром, Джон Лоутон.
Yes
Джон Лоутон маленький и худой в молодости. Ещё Лиз Митчелл из Бони М тоже худенькая в молодости. Красавцы!!!!
@@lpkuznecov он кажется не играл на бас - гитаре
@@olegmakarov7877 Действительно. Это я, похоже, не по адресу вспомнил Джона Веттона, он совмещал вокал и игру на басе.

Liz Mitchell :)
There is no Liz Mitchell, but Judy Archer. Mitchell had already left the choir together with her partner Malcolm ;-)
