Noddy is an absolute rock legend and one of the best frontmen ever. I´m glad he's looking so good.
Shame the late Brian Connelly of "The Sweet" wasn't still around, because he also was
a "Great Frontman" for the band, and they also knocked out many "Great Hits" such as
"Blockbuster, Ballroom Blitz, Hell Raiser, Rebel Rouser etc"
My favourite singer and group ever. Thanks for the memories and the interview.
Noddy rules! Slade is one of THE most underrated bands in rock history. "How does it feel" is one of the most beautiful songs ever released....
Noddy is an amazing man. He is so nice. Down to earth.
thank you for taking the time to watch the Noddy interview. We appreciate it. Please subscribe to Noise11 for other interviews. We also have a recent interview with Slade's Don Powell up there
I'm in my 50s, discovered Slade a couple of years ago, and fell in love!!
Noddy has one of the great Rock n Roll voices of our era, great interview Paul.
What a great interview. I saw Slade only once in 1976 when I was 14 years old. They were touring North America and were on a cross country trip across Canada. I don't remember much about the concert, I wish I had a set list from the show (Winnipeg July 11th 1976) but the thing that really sticks out in my mind was a FM radio interview Noddy (I'm not sure if the rest of the band was present there or not) did the night before the show I saw. I phoned in and got through and was able to talk to Noddy. He asked me if I would like to hear a song and I said ALL THE WORLD IS A STAGE from the brand new album NOBODY's FOOL. He said he certainly would play it and then the radio station went to a commercial. I thought that would be it but Noddy kept talking to me on the phone, so I asked him how I could get into the Slade Fan Club. He said sure I could and so I asked him for the mailing address to write to. It was on Montague St. in London but for the life of me, as a Canadian I could not understand what he was saying in his thick Black Country accent. But he was patient and spelt it out for me and the next day I sent off a letter to England to find out how to join the fan club.
Still sticks in my mind 44 years later, thanks Noddy.
Must be one of the best live bands ever as a kid in the early 70s I saw Slade ever time they came to London thanks to my paper round I got in to Slade coz my brother had the alban play it loud and I would always nick it to play and I still play it to this date 2022 52 years after it’s released date ……… Thank you Noddy & Jimmy for the sound track of my youth
The best song writers are by date .. Lennon & McCartney .. Holder & Lea .. Strummer & Jones
Noddy says "we just churned the hits out" what an understatement of talent.
That man is Slade, nobody can replace that voice...
I hope it is holding up now he is older.
No one will ever come close to Noddy and your right he was and made Slade a great band. Jim, Don, and Dave were awesome musicians. Love the music.
Noddy now looks like a professor, I mean very positively! Has held up great considering how much rock'n roll and stress he had with Slade. Constantly on tour, plus the countless studio recordings. I take my hat off to this lifetime achievement! Best regards, Horst Lemke, Musicproducer, Germany
We love Noddy Holder. And his fabulous shirt :)
This interview is an example of how it should be done. Excellent! I saw Slade perform in Plymouth when Gudbuy t'Jane was number 1. For that reason it will always be my favourite Slade song. They were a great live band.
Great interview! I am a huge fan of Slade and Noddy Holder.
My late father took me to see Slade in concert at "The Bristol Colston Hall" in 1975 !!!
...
I was just 10 at the time !!!
...
They ran onto the stage from the right where the drummer was holding a giant packet of "Wigley Spearment Gum"
...
The first track they sang was "Thanks For The Memory" !!!
...
The support act was called "Bunny" but the crowd were shouting for Slade
...
The second track they sang was "Far Far Away" and the sound was just BEAUTIFUL !!!
...
They were just no more than a VERY LOVELY FRIENDLY BUNCH OF QUALITY PEOPLE !!!
...
YES ... THANKS FOR THE MEMORY !!!
The man with the CRAZIEST closet in Rock and Roll.
Love you, Noddy! ❤
Noddy, you look great mate!!!
Love listening to Nod
What a great interview.. AND WHAT A GREAT VOICE!!!!
1 of the greatest band ever should be in r&r hall of fame
What a glorious interview. Thank you and thank you to Noddy for being so open. I was 13 when Slade hit it big in Aus and Slade Alive was one of the first albums I ever owned and still play to this day. I must have been one of the few people who thought Slade in Flame was a brilliant movie back then. It was a John Osbourne or Harold Pinter styled drama dealing with the music scene when people were expecting a Cliff Richard "Summer Holiday" type of film. I was so happy when the special edition on DVD was released a few years back and I could watch it again and my thoughts haven't changed. I would have liked to hear what Noddy thought of what happened and the rave reception that the band got when they played the Reading Festival (when everyone expected them to be a flop).
It was always was a party starter
Slade Alive; the best live LP that I've ever heard - I'm in my 60s. ACDC's "If You Want Blood" is pretty good too but Slade Alive sets the bench mark.
Noddy - I love you! You just put a big ol' smile on my face every time I see ya. Never change, you beautiful thing.
Great respect Noddy asks to convey my uncle! Slade is his favorite band! In 1986, he sang "Far far away" to the guitar in a dorm song and met his wife)) from Russia with love!
Always loved "How Does It Feel" and one of my Slade favourites, superb production. Great interview from Nod.
Cracking interview, such a unique and powerful voice Noddy, and what a great live band. Quality interview and great host as well.
I lived in Israel when Gud-buy ta Jane came out, I was about 25 or so. I had a younger friend (he was about 15) whose dad had been killed in one of their wars. When it came on the radio, we used to sing along with it while we danced around. (I know that poor kid never really got over the death of his dad, and that song made us both very happy. They played it about ten times a day on Israeli radio). One time after the song was over, he looked at me and said "Father!" I said "No, your dad is gone forever, but l'm your big brother if you want." 😢
Slade, with Noddy and Jim, after 50 years, still one of my all-time favorite bands! Their songs are so good that mediocre artists, or even amateurs, make them sound very well.
Great interview with one of the best guys in rock music
Slade for ever! It was my first band I really liked in the sixties/ seventies. Noddy Holder,Jim Lea,Don Powell and Dave Hill
Unforgettable.
Get down and get with it and feel the noise. Greetings tony Meuwissen,Zutphen
The Netherlands
Excellent interview. Slade were huge in therapy seventies and had a massive influence on my listening habits. Noddy's voice was/is unique and has yet to be equalled. A great guy. Thanx for the musik Nod.
Loved Slade for over 45 years! How Does it Feel my all time fav Slade track! Genius!!!! Noddy`s Vocal one of the best Rock Vocals ever!!!!!!
Great Interview, Great Band
When I was a lad in Bradford you were either Slade or Sweet, I always identified with the Slade Vibe, it was a very similar to the Oasis / Blur rivalry in the 90,s. Back then I didn’t really appreciate how amazing Slade were as both musicians and performers, it is clear now they were one of the greatest Rock groups of all time. Noddy is an incredible vocalist and guitarist, he makes playing and singing look simple, he is a genius. I never had the opportunity to see them live, so would love it if they reformed for a few gigs. Get it sorted Noddy, suggest a series of concerts to get the feel good factor back in the UK, to celebrate the End of the COVID lockdown. The country would love it. Keep Rockin😜👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Slade - Many thanks for over 50 years or so of pure rock. "SLADE ALIVE" is still the best live album ever. Noddy, you are the best!
Noddy you are the best Singer and you had a great band with you..👍👍👍
oooh thankyou for this loved Slade when i was very young (9/10 there abouts) was mainly from listening to the older kids in the neighbourshoods' albums of course (parents not going to buy those records back then for me) :) loved 'Mamma weere all crazy now' :) and especially love come on get with it :) and runaway (now after so many years of not hearing it) what an awesome interview .....so good to see Noddy looking so well and still looking young :) ahhhh what awesome memories thankyou Noddy and Slade for such great memories....don't regret any of it
great interview, not the usual questions
Noddy make a quick reunion and bring Slade to Australia. The World is waiting.
A true Gent, who i grew up to listening to his great music in the 70s, so sad the group has split, would be nice to see the differences put aside, and have meet up for the loyal fans.
slade,le groupe de ma jeunesse,merci Monsieur Holder de m'avoir fait partager votre aventure à travers votre musique.
And you deserve every penny Noddy.
Brilliant interview. How Does it Feel is a classic which I love and have loved since when I saw the film upon release.
Never be another noddy
Legend
We love you, and we want you back!
Success couldn't have happened to nicer guys! Luv dem all! Looking well and jolly as ever, Noddy!
Love Noddy! Great personality! So many good numbers. So much good music. Gudbuy T'Jane, Cum On Feel The Noize, the summer X-mas song ;) ... Two of my very favorites are "My Oh My" 'cause it's just such a soaring production (and my first exposure to Slade as a youngster, along with Run Runaway), and "How Does It Feel?" , because it just fit *so* *well* as a theme song, but especially for the girth in that chorus. What can I say? I'm a sucker for the sound of a bari sax!
As with many others, I never realized Cum On Feel The Noize was a cover until YEARS later and have since come to love both. Noddy wonders why it wasn't a hit in the USA. I think it had something to do with the way the song was written. Maybe a bit too busy for American listeners. Whatever the reason, for me, I always thought that one of the key differences was that Slade's version was more pop/rock whereas America was getting firmly into the heavy metal era and Quiet Riot was definitely metal music. The way it was produced also gave the song a lot more energy and forward momentum. Plus the guitar solo in that tune is just a thing of beauty.
Святые яйца! Вот не ожидал кого увидеть! Мы всей группой слушали Слейд в начале 80-х. Люблю и слушаю Вас до сих пор. Спасибо что украсили мои молодые годы.
thankyou ... and it says "Holy eggs! I didn't expect anyone to see! We listened to Slade as a group in the early 80's. I love and listen to you to this day. Thank you for brightening my young years".
Great interview. Good to see an interviewer that knows the subject matter.
Thank you Mr. Holder for doing your thing. Hope he can lie in the sun when summer comes......like a chameleon. ✌️😎🎸👌✌️
The man, that’s all there has to be said, perhaps the voice too and the live performances 👊
Whatever Happened To Slade? is my favorite album!!! Holder is a legend!
Awesome, thanks! Noddy's doing good!
'Coz I Luv You'... That was the first record I ever bought. Cost me about 50p at Milngavie Record Shop. Oh, the memories... thanks Slade :)
Come back Noddy - pleeeeze - music needs you
Даже не веритса что это Нодди а ведь 50 лет прошло как один день -здоровья старина помним и слушаем до сих пор -эх молодость
Translation: I don’t even believe that this is Noddy, but 50 years have passed like one day - we remember health old fellows and still listen to them - oh youth
Sir Nod for sure.
The states say we love you and Slade!!
Good on`ya Noddy.. great man .. yes i still have all the Records too... i must get them out again for old times.
Lovely guy! 1970's always on "Top of the pops"
Long live Noddy & the boys.
Noddy Looks And Sounds In Great Health......Really Buzzin.....I And Many Others Would Love To See Slade Reform Once Again.......Sounds Like Dave Hill's Buggered That One Up Though.
Slade...la banda mas grande de Inglaterra...se deberian unir en un gran concierto fueron parte del soundtrack of my life.... gracias...
Noddy is a legend
Thank you Noddy,Jimmy ,Dave and Don for my childhood memories
Excellent interview
followed slade since they started favorite song, all of them, but two stick in my mind.Darlin Be Home Soon, kill em at the hot club tonight noddy top bloke.
I would love to hear some of the tracks still in the can that have NEVER been released!!!!!
The best rockvoice ever....
Noddy the original rock star
❤❤❤
Love Slade my daughter loved Noddy holder
Great interview !
Come on Sir Noddy you need your own RUclips channel please
I wish the super musician and the super person many happy years! I love you, Noddy. I sang your songs at dance parties in the USSR and was hated by communists but loved by ordinary people.
Great interview. Loved Slade. First time I seen them was in NYC at felt forum with opening act Aerosmith
I was there too, great show 2 great bands.
Slade were the loudest band .... you came out with ears ringing from their gigs. First famous band I saw at Newcastle City Hall when I was 17. They were fantastic.
Yeah, makes you wonder how his hearing is still holding up from those years.?
Noddy was doing a reunion gig and needed all the gear of era. He went to a fancy dress shop and the assistant gave him a colourful waistcoat, a pair of platform shoes, a wig with massive sideburns and a shirt with massive collars.
The shop assist said 'what about a kipper tie' and Noddy says 'great idea, milk one sugar please'
very clever
Great Interviewer ! Reminds me of a younger Piers Morgan .
Imagine if he joined acdc in 1980. His voice would have fitted.
What a great interview. The best I’ve ever heard from Nod, I think. I think Dave was right about Flame. Back in the day it helped sink the band. The emergence of Punk didn’t help either. Of course things have changed over the last 45 years, and it’s had it’s own claim to fame.
Use to go watch slade at town Hall n odean Birmingham 👊 funking brilliant years 👏🍻✌
Noddy 4 Ever Slade 2
Here's the BEST Rock vocalists of all time (in no particular order)
Paul Stanley, Ronnie Dio, Noddy Holder, Tony Christie, Robert Palmer.
Each of these is a Power House Rock God,
I love 'em all (in a man kind of way),
but Noddy is the biggest & most humble gentleman of the bunch.
Long live the institution of powerhouse rock, (one of the reasons to tolerate life)!!
Great frontman. Love & peace Noddy.
Slade Alive was before Kiss Alive, that's where they got that from. Noddy Holders broken glass hat was the idea for Paul Stanley's broken glass guitar
Surprised to hear Noddy saying that he thought Slade would get back together at some point. In every interview I've seen where the question has been asked, Nod's response has always been along the lines of been there, done that.
Now he says it. 30 years and nothing.
@@ColtraneTaylor It's a total about turn. I think it's pretty certain that Dave, Don and Jim would have got back together at the drop of a hat if Nod had said the word. Maybe Nod feels he can say this now, thinking that it's probably too late to ever happen.
@@mrindecisive100 Who knows, probably. But then Jim has only lately come out with Slade like tunes. Maybe they're both in the zone again.
@@ColtraneTaylor You may well be right; we live in hope.
God blesses you Noddy.
Nod needs to make one more song.......its.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Brexxxxxittttttttttttttttt!!!!!!!!!!!.. wouldn't that be fabulous? It would be the Christmas number one this year...
What a nice block Noddy Holder is..
Most successful of all the 'Glam Rock' bands by a long way, in fact of many bands FULL STOP.
Proper rockers, really and loads of GREAT songs that will last for eons.
NODDAY!!!
Share the wealth Noddy. Salade was all of you
Oh my god Noddy my childhood hero he's amasing
Noddy should have made a gangster movie. I can imagine him in full "top of the world, Ma" overdrive!
Великий человечище!
Great human being!
Top interview, top gent, had the pleasure to meet him on the set of Max and Paddy. best voice in rock ever and top top live band. God bless you Nod.
The king of glam rock
Noody, good guy, good musician.
Anyone remember how good he was in the Grimley's comedy series
Yes he was brilliant
Slade's Noize was way better than Quiet Riots cover.
