    Soooo glad I found this documentary. Really refreshing to see time and effort being put into these guys. So thank your for doing this it’s about bloody time they got the recognition they deserved.
    Can still remember the day reading in the daily star about their sad passing 😢
    Been a fan of these 2 legends since seeing them on top of the pops as a kid. Instant connection and received the 12 commandments album on ye olde cassette for Xmas. My first album ever
    Always had a soft spot for these guys and recall hearing chapel of love on the radio one evening to never be heard again and no more of their music
    Until working away one day and being in a work car with a load of cassette tapes. This was around 1999. Chucked on of these tapes on and low and behold freedom came on 😀 I was absolutely buzzing to hear it lol.
    Fast forward a couple more years and I dropped onto a copy of sweet soul music at a music shop that was closing down.
    Naturally I ordered love for unity once I new it was out there. My fave album of the latter releases
    The religious cross over album just didn’t work for me but I do have a soft spot for gospel train to London
    Thanks again for doing this. You smashed it out of the park

    I remember Pete Waterman promoting the London Boys on The Hitman & Her before they hit the charts (we used to watch it after a night out!) - and I loved the Hi-NRG sound of their earlier hits.
    Wasn't aware of their later stuff (probably not promoted as well, sounds like they had to battle with record companies throughout).
    By the 1990s it was considered quite a dated sound (by some! though I have a soft spot for eurodisco and Hi-NRG and still loved it).
    What a tragic ending.

    I discovered the london boys by the Spotify algorithm and i was absolutely fascinated by them!! I knew they had something different and unique and when i saw their music videos their dances were something i haven't seen much in the whole 80s scene. Its sad to see that so much of the potential they had couldn't be archived due to fundings, specially at the time advertising was a whole different thing, those dances would go viral if it happened in this decade!! It broke my heart to see that they died so early through their careers... RIP the boys... their music will never get old!!

  • @andrewbowman4611
    @andrewbowman4611 Год назад +3

    Thanks for this. The London Boys were indeed a force majeur in 1989, with Requiem being one of the best songs of that year. Their deaths were a shock to us all at the time, and posthumously raised their profile for a brief period, as ghoulish as it sounds. In fact, their demise was very close to a similar accident suffered by Bucks Fizz. Although all four survived, singer Mike Nolan was severely injured, with massive trauma to his brain. He still performs, but even now he has difficulty with his memory.
    The history of Bucks Fizz is fascinating in itself, culminating with the majority of the band (Nolan, Cheryl Baker and Jay Aston) not being allowed to use the name Bucks Fizz, because former bandmate Bobby Gee won the rights to own the name, despite the fact he's the only original member of it. It's weird, quite honestly, but fascinating, as I said.

      @@AdamMartyn It's certainly a tangled web. Weirdly, Cheryl Baker is one of the few artists who competed in the Eurovision Song Contest in two separate acts, which is a nice little titbit of information, I think.
      Of the official Bucks Fizz, I believe that the ownership of the name was transferred to Bobby Gee's wife, who's a member of the group as well. As a result, the other three are now known as The Fizz, having previously been called Mike, Jay and Cheryl, Formerly of Bucks Fizz, with Bobby McVie (Gee's replacement). Needless to say, there's a fair bit of bad blood between the former bandmates at the moment!

    damn there music is groooovy! sadly I was born in 2012 (cry about me being young) so I didn’t see anything related to them. I wish time travel was real so I could meet them before they died, R.I.P chain here

      Lad, if I had a time machine I'd travel on the motorway that took away my gran's and one of my best friend's lives within the space of three months in 1990. Same hell of an Italian motorway. I'd be there to stand beside their cars with mine and drive them away from the crash scene.
      I'd do the same with the two blokes from London, if only I knew where exactly they faced death.

    I saw them live at several gay clubs around Sheffield, UK back in 1988/1989 I was 18. I then moved to Australia and hadn't thought about the London Boys until this popped up in my YT feed. So sad to hear how they left us.

    I am a Korean. In my memory, I'm gonna give... & Harlem desire can be ranked number 1 in my regional several unofficial chart. But I wonder what you mean three chart toppers? Who said like that? Which chart you refer? And who said My Love ranked no.1 in my territory? My love is my favorite song of theirs, but I'm very curious what chart you're talking about because I don't think it was popular enough to top the Korean charts.

    First, let me say how much I have enjoyed watching your content Adam.
    You are mistaken about Horst Fascher's role in The Beatles' Hamburg bookings though. Horst was a waiter at the Star Club, where they often played and Horst would often pull double duty, looking after the Star Club bands (ie. prootecting them from physical harm)
    Bruno Koshmeider was the guy who first booked The Beatles for a Hamburg residency.
