It took a hundred years to make that old tree grow And there beside that tree, I learned to love you so It took a hundred years of sunshine before that old tree grew But it only took a minute baby to fall in love with you It didn't take a lifetime to make my dreams come true No it only took a minute baby to fall in love with you It took a million stars to make that starlight shine And underneath those stars one night I made you mine It took a million stars a-twinkling to light that sky of blue But it only took a minute baby to fall in love with you Didn't take a lifetime to make my dreams come true No it only took a minute baby to fall in love with you Yeah it only took a minute baby to fall in love with you
Great track. I could imagine Eddie Cochran singing a rockier version of this song. Joe became friends with Eddie, but by the time this aired, Eddie had sadly already been dead two years.
Cool hairdos from the early 1960's. Gotta love that hair cream. That stuff works better than pomade. Hair cream makes your hair shine more, and it holds it in place more.
I found pomade held much better when I had my hair like Billy Fury back in the 90s, but it was a cow to wash out! I stuck to Brylcreem - it tended to flop a bit more, but yes, it looked slicker.
If you watch 'Joe Brown Live at Liverpool', at one point Joe says to his drummer, Phil, "I wish I had your voice". Phil (very thin on top) replies, "I wish I had your hair!". Joe says, "You can have a lend of it in the interval if you like; you can walk up and down shouting at people".
It started with the Wanstead aeromodellers club. Several of us played guitars and we would take our instruments along to model aircraft competitions. I remember once we traveled on the underground train to a competition. We stood in the area by the doors, and played our music to the surprise of passengers on the platforms as we arrived at each station. Mick Reeves
I knew Joe at school and used to have a pint in his Mums pub the Sultan. I remember Joe shooting his air pistol at us when we walked on the Northern outlet sewers dirt road, he started out with a tea chest for a double bass in the band.
Saw Joe Brown and the Bruvvers 1962/63 at Newcastle Empire Theatre Fabulous.
Great song from a great singer Joe Brown and the Bruvvers were a brilliant act
Damn it all Joe is very undwrated.
Exept by those who love him!

I worked with him with my act, he was very lovely he had the famous drummer working with his band Gene Crupa
It took a hundred years to make that old tree grow
And there beside that tree, I learned to love you so
It took a hundred years of sunshine before that old tree grew
But it only took a minute baby to fall in love with you
It didn't take a lifetime to make my dreams come true
No it only took a minute baby to fall in love with you
It took a million stars to make that starlight shine
And underneath those stars one night I made you mine
It took a million stars a-twinkling to light that sky of blue
But it only took a minute baby to fall in love with you
Didn't take a lifetime to make my dreams come true
No it only took a minute baby to fall in love with you
Yeah it only took a minute baby to fall in love with you
lenny the lion AND joe brown,now i feel very old
And they've both been to the same barber!
About birthday, It's such a honor to have Joe Brown as common. He seems to be talented and natural.
Nice music from the early sixties - Funny to see Tony Sheridan as a Band member.
I like Joe Browns new CD on his Ukulele. Good atmosphere.
Bobbie Graham pre session fame on drums as well, when asked to joIn The Beatles he said what for?I’m with Joe Brown!
That's not Tony Sheridan.
great guitar player
Sweet memory of those lovely old days.

How was this guy not part of the British Invasion?
I saw Joe in Lowestoft Marina a couple of years a go, brilliant evening.
Pre Beatles Boom, like the Shadows. Wow what history

His hair looks way ahead of his time, like David Bowie or someone from the New Wave 80s.
Tought the same,@@d.a.elliottjr.367...! 😉
I was 16 when I bought this record. Always liked Joe.
Phil Collins says in his autobiography that this was the first 45 he bought.

he live 30 minutes walk away from my home in chigwell when i was a kid
Joe did well concidering Mr Wilson our music teacher said he wont go far, thats what Joe told me last I saw him in the early sixties.
Such a warm voice perfect for singing
I prefer when he says 'I'd better go and check car to see that the hubcaps are still there
lol

"Its our pal and mine...Joe Drown" LOL
Feel old now
Lenny The Lion!
there's a picture of a young George Harrison holding joe's guitar. he borrowed it when joe wasn't looking.
@TheTwizzy1975 I saw Joe a few months ago - he still looks the same 50 years later, same haircut !!
`I saw him 61/62, still looks and sounds the same`.
Joe's a class act. But look at Bobby Graham on the drums. This song isn't demanding, but he has total class.
Joe Drown!
Joe Drown?!?!...that ventriloquist was bobbins
the late Bobby Graham on drums
In ya face Gary Barlow...
Long time ago wher did tony oakman [one of the bruvvers get to]Joe hosted the tribute to George Harrison but again Londons pride
Does that lion have a harelip?
Jij
Mark Zuckerberg.a ventriloquist
Cool band....I read that the drummer was asked to join the Beatles but he declined. Ha.
Sorry Lennie….Joe …who???
Awesome song
