I still think that How Dare You is one of the best, most complete albums from start to finish that I ever heard. It was just brilliant. And, I'm Not In Love is my first musical memory. I have still never heard anything as good. 10cc is one of the very best bands in rock history.
@@PurpleRecords1972I used to think HDY was better because I've got the record, but after some recent spins of Sheet Music, it really is a 10/10 album. Totally irreverent and hilariously subverted. Ya gotta love them
I was college radio DJ in the late '70's and I found HDY as I randomly scanned the library of albums. I was on Saturday nights from 10 to 2 am and could play just about anything I wanted so I put on track one, loved it and decided just to play the whole album... it was brilliant! One of my favorites to this day!
Seen 10cc many times at Glasgow Apollo, before and after the split. Three times in one week, would have been 4 if Lol Creme hadn't lost his voice! Musically they were brilliant, their lyrics were very clever and funny. I often wonder what gems we would have got had they stayed together a little longer. Thanks for the memories guys it's been a blast 👍👍
... WBD, I'm feeling it, like a totally wonderous wow out all of a half century ago and half a world away down under here in OZ. You're 1 very fortunately lucky enough to have been in the right place at the right time to have witnessed truely great musical history. Back in the early 80's, i was whimsyically inspired enough by Godley Creams' Consequences to name my band 17, which in itself was obscure enough and mysterious enough to get us onto the circuit for a couple of years, backing many of the up and comings and the already weres, which is as close as we could get to the fire. We was nothing, but thought that we was the greatest ...
... Aend, 10cc foreran the likes of ELO and many others. The patent maybe out, But because that little thingy can single handedly emulate an orchestra and wot-not, and though It's as analogue as can be, I recon that Lol&Kev could very easily relaunch the Gizmatron today and make an abba-$olute killing with IT for sure, yeah-yeah ...
The BBC must be so pleased to have you editing their documentaries - and what luck for the rest of us, getting to experience 64 slices of soapy American cheese where some of the music videos and at least one interview used to be.
I grew up around three miles from Strawberry Studios and as my musical "awakening" happened when I was 15 in 1972 10cc and SRS played a big part of my life at that time. But the studio may never have existed. In June 1967 a DC4/Argonaut airliner belonging to British Midland Airways crashed less than 200 yards away killing 72 people, with 12 survivors. 200 yards to the right was Stockport Police Station and directly opposite was an Edwardian pub. The aircraft was reported to have clipped one of the chimneys of that building.
I listened to Radio Luxembourg, station 208 on the medium wave band. I was fifteen and living in Madrid. It was 1969 and I heard Neanderthal Man. Hot legs were the band. I did not know at the time that they would become 100CC, one of my faves. Still listen to them when the mood strikes. Now I am 70. Living in Washington state. Funny how things work out. Cheers!
Great music, but what's with the clips of American shows (instead of the original videos) that seem to have nothing to do with the content? They really take away from the experience. Is this something to do with calling it the "changed, cleaned-up American cropped version", and a reflection of not being able to get copyright on the videos? I just don't get it. Mind you, I don't get a lot of what goes on in RUclips these days!
I remember their music back in the "70's as a kid. Great memorable songs on the radio..as many were at that time. So 10cc was one of those bands.. , there was a lot of great music on the airwave, so much different styles and variety. The thing about the "I'm not in love"..hit that struck me was the sound. We had an old stereo radio and the vocals on that song made it as if the song came out of every corner of the room! Also the name 10cc got stuck in my head. Little did I know they were of that importance in music history..all that became more aparent later! This video surely underlines their influence!!
I had no idea they were that accomplished both before and after that song. I'm 52, so I'm Not In Love was all over the radio in my youth. But I was more of a metal head and never closely paid attention. These are four seriously talented guys.
Thoroughly enjoying this. Thank you for posting this channel. Absolutely fantastic group of guys having fun and making music that put everybody else to shame really!
Rubber Bullets was my first 45. I bought it from my mate. Deceptive Bends was my first CD. I was working at Philips TMC in Airdrie and bought my first CD player from the staff shop. My first 12", well, Dirty Deeds 🤭
I heard their work as separate men throughout my life. Never actually heard the namd of the band 3cc. But what I do know is that I like their work. God bless their creativity
I would actually love to hear the original bossa nova version of I'm Not In Love.. this was a great documentary, however the edits were completely unnecessary and childish, even.
I never knew that Graham Gouldman wrote my two favorite songs by the Yardbirds! Wow, what a Talented Musician! And Song Writer. I agree he should be recognized for his Top Songs that He Wrote! I don't think he's been given enough Credit for his talent and worth to the Whole of Roots Rock and Roll as far as the British Invasion goes. The Mind Benders were also amazing! Groovy kind if Love! Wow! That's one of the Best Love Songs Ever Written and Preformed Both Live and Studio Versions! I never knew there was so much talent in 10 cc. I'm not in Love is really what put 10 cc into Super Stardum as far as things go, but my favorite 10 cc song is Black Mail because of the Beat, singing and flow of the song! Also, completely Original!
27:14 ...Mike Oldfield, "You're welcone, Mr. Branson!" Lol! I'm Not In Love could've been my theme song in the '70's and '80's with my couple/not couple relationship with my girlfriend...I put her through 13 years of that crap before realizing yeah I'm protesting too much! Thank god she continued to take me back, got married and have been for 33 years!! Thank you, dear!!
Oh, another memory I always fly back in time to is when I hear "Im not in love"... The first time I... weeeeell 🥰... "Im not in love" was played on the radio in the background... But I was... in love... you know, as in love a 14 year old kid could be😁 We're actually still friends today, and (eventhough our memories differ a bit - I remember it waaay longer than 10 seconds, I claim it must have at least touched the 30 second barrier! Weeeeell, I was at least the best uptil then🥴) Thanx for sharing 🙏 Love from Sweden 💖
I thought "I'm Not In Love" was a very serious, meaningful pop ballad, without the clever or funny material, mainly all about Eric himself really not in love with Lesley Hornby, better known as Twiggy. That's what I thought.
Growing up in the 70s I can't tell you how this band amongst many I loved - if not the best. 'I'm not in Love' still especially runs a chill if that's the word down my spine & heart re a girl I knew back then when it was released. That is the joy of listening to these past tracks and how it takes you back to a time in your life. GREAT BAND and great days growing up. Today I pity in may ways kids (my age back then) dealing with social media.
This AMAZZING band were just so inventive with music, harmony, lyrics.....so influential and seriously, look upp songs written by Gouldman before they were even formed. They were so good they had the confidence to be inventive, imaginative...no fear. Nobody told them what to do. Just one of the best ever and in the same breath as the Beatles. And yet, lost to time. Eh? You only kn ow 'Dreadlock Holiday' and Oh Donna?....HOW DARE YOU! I wrote this ages ago on a comment to the song "Don't Hang up" So weird to hear them say the same here. BTW....Give your life a huge present and listen too Don't Hang Up ....just beyond pop etc.
The creator of this channel hates women as he has stated in previous threads , a pretty lame excuse and guy i hope hes not married hes prob one of those guys that spanks his wife and is an old school shitter box . Thats what i see , i see em come and they gooo …
Get over it, you clown. It's part of the song and editing out that part of the documentary is the height of arrogance and a ridiculous thing to do. I'm glad the full version is on RUclips without the stupid edits.
Can you imagine Freddie Mercury as part of this group of guys? OMG I made this comment before they ever got to mentioning queen on the video. I guess it really was that obvious.
The intro of the Zeppelin tune: In The Evening features the Gizmo. Page put it on the Stratocaster and along with Bonzo on tympani drums they created something rather foreboding in sound.
I love the original 10cc, but I also love “Deceptive Bends”; for me, every single track on that album is a winner. And “L” remains one of my favorite albums of all time.
A great BBC documentary about one of the most seminal bands to have ever emerged from the UK but that has been ruined by numerous inserts of totally unrelated clips from crappy American tv shows. Shameful!
Lol is so right about being on Atlantic in America. Atlantic were a seriously powerful force on the charts. I recently saw a top 20 chart from around 1972, and Atlantic had 6 albums in that Top 20. It's a shame they couldn't have been on Virgin. They would have shared home with XTC, who are 10cc's natural successors ;)
I’m just not getting all the extraneous TV show/film insertions here, which have nothing to do with anything. And the cover versions? Baffling. I can’t believe they were actually part of the original documentary.
I guess it’s a matter of taste but to me “Consequences” is an awesome 3 disc accomplishment. Much of Godley & Crème’s work is exceptional and outstanding. I’m a massive 10cc fan. But I really lean toward Kevin and Lol as far as innovative music.
43:28 --- Kevin Godley is pretty smarmy in his reaction to "The Things We Do For Love." This is a great song that's still being listened to nearly 50 years later . . . meanwhile his self-indulgent 'avant garde' album "Consequences" is long forgotten, and rightly so --- it's crap, and "The Things We Do For Love" isn't.
Consequences is not forgotten at all. Bizarre thing to say. They made some other great albums too, not to mention their work producing videos for other prominent artists. Godley was very unkind about “The Things We Do For Love”, but as Creme says, he can see now what a good song it is, but they didn’t see it that way at the time. I think it is one of their best songs too.
A party boi? What....are you cruisin'' for dudes? Things we do for love is on par with what any of the Solo Beatles were putting out at the time. It could pass for an Abbey Road or Revolver outtake
Saying "Be quiet!" in the middle of 10cc's meaningful serious pop ballad, "I'm Not in Love" is not allowed and it's totally rude, which I know is not very nice. 33:46
What if.... what if???? WHAT IF THEY GAVE US ONE MORE ALBUM??? It would change the world!!! I would rather see them do that than see any other band to date!!!
No, the sitcom garbage is not in the original. The complete and unedited documentary is on RUclips without the ridiculous crap done to it by this idiot. It's titled "I'm Not in Love: The Story of 10cc (2015)"
I'll tell you why. I don't like that annoying, overheated "big-boys-don't-cry" mayhem from tuneless lady Kathy Redfern that made no sense. Instead I would replace that middle part that was mess with relevant and sensible clips that fit the song title "I'm Not in Love" that Eric performed from One Day At A Time and The Peanuts. I just want Eric singing the serious pop music ballad part, "I'm Not in Love", not Kathy.
There’s a bit of contradiction here. I live in Dorking Surrey. The legend was that the Strawberry Studios were in a former old cinema in Dorking. 10cc’s records were made here. In fact one of their albums was called Deceptive Bends. This was named after the famous dangerous bends at Meiklham near Dorking. It was here too that Eric Stewart had his infamous road accident when he was nearly killed. Can anyone clarify. Wherever, they were a great band and I’m not in Love still a great song. 🙋♂️🇬🇧👏👏
Exactly - who knows how small the output was compared to the sheer might of the musical power available, but we saw a fraction of what could have happened.
Cleaned up? not really, but maybe another try at this valuable documentary and it'll get there. First off, fix the aspect - oval shaped kick drums aren't in vogue ;-). Secondly, up the rez to at least 1080p. You can do it! Or, send me the footage
49:49 Why did they play “People in Love” 1977 from Deceptive Bends when Eric and Graham were talking about early 80’s 10CC?, that’s late 70’s 10cc. Why didn’t they play a song from “Look Hear? 1980 or Ten Out of 10 1982 or Windows in the Jungle 1983 when they talked about that era?
I'll tell you what. I couldn't stand Kathy Redfern's annoying voice repeating "big boys don't cry" to spoil that heartfelt ballad "I'm Not in Love" by 10cc in midsong just to leave it half-unfinished, because it drives me crazy, 😡so I made the whole audience boo her out. That's why I know the worst part in the middle that she was doing, which was a bad mistake, 😞is not my favorite. My fact is her last 4 spoken words that were repeated too often, "Big boys don't cry" do not match the song's actual title. The disappointment was it left the original recording of that song too long, too lengthy and too confusing with no clearer message or no clarity, plus it left the original recording of that song untidy with nobody deleting her messy, repetitive interlude that sounded like a broken record that got a big boring to cause that song a delay for no reason. 😢😞Instead I had to replace that annoying, repeated irrelevant big-boys-don't-cry rubbish that didn't have what it took with relevant clips of Ann Romano acting like she's not in love with her hubby anymore when she slapped her son, Alex in the face from "One Day At a Time", a clip of Lucy asking Schroeder if he wanted to suffer the tortures of the memory of a lost love from "Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown" and another clip of Ann Romano acting like she's not in love with her husband anymore due to age-related health problems or cancer when she slapped her daughter, Julie in the face again from the family sitcom, "One Day At a Time". Those are the relevant clips that fit the song that Eric Stewart was singing. 33:46 - 35:36
@@the70spopculturebox59 You're a clown. I'm glad the original full documentary without your dumb edits is on RUclips. It's titled "I'm Not in Love: The Story of 10cc (2015)" and I recommend everyone check it out and forget about your crap opinions.
@@the70spopculturebox59 Why couldn't 10cc get serious on that tune? In that song, the 2 parts "I'm Not in Love" and "big boys don't cry" don't mix. That 's my honest fact. Her line, "big boys don't cry" is incorrect. It doesn't match the way Eric Stewart sang years ago, plus her overheated, repeated line, "big boys don't cry" made the music terrible, so I made the angry audience boo her out because on the record she never said the correct words, "I hate you! I'm not in love. It's because you treat me like dirt." Again, "I'm Not in Love" and "big boys don't cry" don't match. 33:46 - 35:36
@@the70spopculturebox59 Well, it takes some gall to think that you know better that the originators. You've have gotten a like from me, but for that unholy mess of American sit com clips. How Dare You!
I think “life is a minestrone” Is code for life sucks because no one that I know raves about minestrone soup. When it came down to writing that song, they must’ve had a list of soup choices. Was gazpacho and mulligans stew the other choices on the list of unappealing soups?
bit of trivia- fifteen years ago, I was shopping for a fender precision & chanced upon a listing for a late '63 in fiesta red. put in a bid, won the thing, then realised that the seller was ES himself. he'd bought the bass in 1970 to keep at the studio (strawberry), & told me that it was used on loads of recordings despite GG normally being seen with a 4001 or a fender VI.
Why oh why did you have to ruin this documentary with the stupid sit-com and cartoon stuff. The story of 'I'm Not In Love' was being told by everyone who contributed, and the secretary's contribution is as important as anyone's. You ruined a brilliant programme. Thanks a bunch.
There is more talent in 10cc than in all of the bands today combined.
correct.
That song spoke Volume's to alot people for alot of different reason's.

Brilliant.. 10cc one of my favorite bands growing up in that era. 🙏🏼🙏🏼
They are one of the best bands in the world!!

It would be great if the original 4 members with the new members did a world farewell tour.
A great BBC documentary about one of the most seminal bands to have ever emerged from the UK but that has been ruined by numerous inserts of totally unrelated clips from crappy American tv shows. Shameful!
Lol is so right about being on Atlantic in America. Atlantic were a seriously powerful force on the charts. I recently saw a top 20 chart from around 1972, and Atlantic had 6 albums in that Top 20. It's a shame they couldn't have been on Virgin. They would have shared home with XTC, who are 10cc's natural successors ;)
I’m just not getting all the extraneous TV show/film insertions here, which have nothing to do with anything. And the cover versions? Baffling. I can’t believe they were actually part of the original documentary.
I guess it’s a matter of taste but to me “Consequences” is an awesome 3 disc accomplishment. Much of Godley & Crème’s work is exceptional and outstanding. I’m a massive 10cc fan. But I really lean toward Kevin and Lol as far as innovative music.
Fair enough! Plus, I totally agree!
43:28 --- Kevin Godley is pretty smarmy in his reaction to "The Things We Do For Love." This is a great song that's still being listened to nearly 50 years later . . . meanwhile his self-indulgent 'avant garde' album "Consequences" is long forgotten, and rightly so --- it's crap, and "The Things We Do For Love" isn't.
Consequences is not forgotten at all. Bizarre thing to say. They made some other great albums too, not to mention their work producing videos for other prominent artists. Godley was very unkind about “The Things We Do For Love”, but as Creme says, he can see now what a good song it is, but they didn’t see it that way at the time. I think it is one of their best songs too.
The things we do for love is corny pop music . Are you a party boi or what?
@@matlabatt Not a party boy. I grew up in the '70s.
A party boi? What....are you cruisin'' for dudes? Things we do for love is on par with what any of the Solo Beatles were putting out at the time. It could pass for an Abbey Road or Revolver outtake
Yes, but what a great corny pop song, love the guitar solo and everything about it.
the subtitles are really off someone needs to correct them
They used a Helios console in the studio that enabled them to basically play the voices backing track to I’m Not In Love.
Saying "Be quiet!" in the middle of 10cc's meaningful serious pop ballad, "I'm Not in Love" is not allowed and it's totally rude, which I know is not very nice.

Ole Mole those kids were brilliant
What if.... what if???? WHAT IF THEY GAVE US ONE MORE ALBUM??? It would change the world!!! I would rather see them do that than see any other band to date!!!
Well, I would have enjoyed that immensely, were it not for the spaz who took the unilateral decision to blank out the bits he thinks aren't relevant.
WHAT IS WITH THESE TV SHOW INSERTIONS??? What do Luke, Laura, or Charlie Brown have to do with Kev, Lol, Eric, or Graham?
It's a smash. . . People actually spoke like that in them days!
What's all the sitcom nonsense in the middle? Was that in the original documentary?
No, the sitcom garbage is not in the original. The complete and unedited documentary is on RUclips without the ridiculous crap done to it by this idiot. It's titled "I'm Not in Love: The Story of 10cc (2015)"
“Sheet Music”, baby!
Read the Rolling Stone review…
…took a chance…
…listened to the album.
Hooked for Life.
As a young kid listening to 10cc, I found them funny as hell and great musicians. They kinda were weird Al before wired Al.
This is an excellent documentary. I just don't understand the use of clips from One Day At A Time and The Peanuts.
I'll tell you why. I don't like that annoying, overheated "big-boys-don't-cry" mayhem from tuneless lady Kathy Redfern that made no sense. Instead I would replace that middle part that was mess with relevant and sensible clips that fit the song title "I'm Not in Love" that Eric performed from One Day At A Time and The Peanuts. I just want Eric singing the serious pop music ballad part, "I'm Not in Love", not Kathy.
41:08 Does Lols prototype Gizmo even work anymore? Can he’s still use it or get it running again? Why did he stop using it after 1979?
There’s a bit of contradiction here. I live in Dorking Surrey. The legend was that the Strawberry Studios were in a former old cinema in Dorking. 10cc’s records were made here. In fact one of their albums was called Deceptive Bends. This was named after the famous dangerous bends at Meiklham near Dorking. It was here too that Eric Stewart had his infamous road accident when he was nearly killed. Can anyone clarify.
Wherever, they were a great band and I’m not in Love still a great song. 🙋♂️🇬🇧👏👏
Some of the sounds on Consequences are still astonishing to this day but i really wish they hadn't done it.
33:10. Art of Noise sampled her into their song Camilla about half way into it. I’m just now realizing where the original voice came from.
Loved 10cc Greater than the Sum of its Parts.
Totally agree
Exactly - who knows how small the output was compared to the sheer might of the musical power available, but we saw a fraction of what could have happened.
I was looking forward to this. The stupid TV show clips in the middle of it RUINED it. Thumbs DOWN.
Cleaned up? not really, but maybe another try at this valuable documentary and it'll get there. First off, fix the aspect - oval shaped kick drums aren't in vogue ;-). Secondly, up the rez to at least 1080p. You can do it! Or, send me the footage
49:49 Why did they play “People in Love” 1977 from Deceptive Bends when Eric and Graham were talking about early 80’s 10CC?, that’s late 70’s 10cc. Why didn’t they play a song from “Look Hear? 1980 or Ten Out of 10 1982 or Windows in the Jungle 1983 when they talked about that era?
I didn't realilize Eric was in two songs that were popular then.
groovy
and stop pirate managers slavedrivers theyre a stinkybunch
..great Kev.. three weeks for an album... Black Sabbath did their debut in 1 day, and went off to Hamburg to play The Starclub....
I saw them at Knebworth in 76. It was very very hot
What's with all of the idiotic, IRRELEVANT sitcom and cartoon crap SMACK DAB IN THE MIDDLE of the most interesting part of this document?????
I'll tell you what. I couldn't stand Kathy Redfern's annoying voice repeating "big boys don't cry" to spoil that heartfelt ballad "I'm Not in Love" by 10cc in midsong just to leave it half-unfinished, because it drives me crazy, 😡so I made the whole audience boo her out. That's why I know the worst part in the middle that she was doing, which was a bad mistake, 😞is not my favorite. My fact is her last 4 spoken words that were repeated too often, "Big boys don't cry" do not match the song's actual title. The disappointment was it left the original recording of that song too long, too lengthy and too confusing with no clearer message or no clarity, plus it left the original recording of that song untidy with nobody deleting her messy, repetitive interlude that sounded like a broken record that got a big boring to cause that song a delay for no reason. 😢😞Instead I had to replace that annoying, repeated irrelevant big-boys-don't-cry rubbish that didn't have what it took with relevant clips of Ann Romano acting like she's not in love with her hubby anymore when she slapped her son, Alex in the face from "One Day At a Time", a clip of Lucy asking Schroeder if he wanted to suffer the tortures of the memory of a lost love from "Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown" and another clip of Ann Romano acting like she's not in love with her husband anymore due to age-related health problems or cancer when she slapped her daughter, Julie in the face again from the family sitcom, "One Day At a Time". Those are the relevant clips that fit the song that Eric Stewart was singing.

@@the70spopculturebox59 talk about irrelevant.
@@the70spopculturebox59 You're a clown. I'm glad the original full documentary without your dumb edits is on RUclips. It's titled "I'm Not in Love: The Story of 10cc (2015)" and I recommend everyone check it out and forget about your crap opinions.
@@the70spopculturebox59 Why couldn't 10cc get serious on that tune? In that song, the 2 parts "I'm Not in Love" and "big boys don't cry" don't mix. That 's my honest fact. Her line, "big boys don't cry" is incorrect. It doesn't match the way Eric Stewart sang years ago, plus her overheated, repeated line, "big boys don't cry" made the music terrible, so I made the angry audience boo her out because on the record she never said the correct words, "I hate you! I'm not in love. It's because you treat me like dirt." Again, "I'm Not in Love" and "big boys don't cry" don't match.

@@the70spopculturebox59 Well, it takes some gall to think that you know better that the originators.
You've have gotten a like from me, but for that unholy mess of American sit com clips. How Dare You!
I think “life is a minestrone” Is code for life sucks because no one that I know raves about minestrone soup. When it came down to writing that song, they must’ve had a list of soup choices. Was gazpacho and mulligans stew the other choices on the list of unappealing soups?
stockport dan.
eric especially was a genius in the studio.
bit of trivia- fifteen years ago, I was shopping for a fender precision & chanced upon a listing for a late '63 in fiesta red. put in a bid, won the thing, then realised that the seller was ES himself. he'd bought the bass in 1970 to keep at the studio (strawberry), & told me that it was used on loads of recordings despite GG normally being seen with a 4001 or a fender VI.
subtitles are rubbish, band brilliant
Too many ads!!!!!!
Brilliant documentary but the closed captions are hilariously inaccurate.
Why oh why did you have to ruin this documentary with the stupid sit-com and cartoon stuff. The story of 'I'm Not In Love' was being told by everyone who contributed, and the secretary's contribution is as important as anyone's. You ruined a brilliant programme. Thanks a bunch.
