It only takes TAVARES guys -- to hook you in, hook you in! These talented hotties with their bad-a__ harmonies, their energy, the great songs they've infused with their charm! Wow . . . hearing this dance groove brings me back to a special place & makes me wanna get up & jam right along with them. I'm sayin' 5 of Heaven's missing angels show up "here with me right now" when I hear & watch Tavares. (Go RUclips!!!) Thanks for posting this snslo!!! THANK YOU & LOVE YOU TAVARES!!!
my all time favorite group! And to this day I can sing one of their songs like The Mighty Power Of Love and Being With You! To my wife and she will forget why she mad.
On this day in 1975 {September 6th} Tavares performed "It Only Takes a Minute" on the ABC-TV program 'American Bandstand'... Two months earlier on July 20th, 1975 it entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart at position #82; and on October 19th, 1975 it peaked at #10 {for 1 week} and spent 18 weeks on the Top 100... And on September 14th, 1975 it reached #1 {for 1 week} on Billboard's R&B Singles chart... Between 1973 and 1982 the five Tavares brothers had fourteen Top 100 records; their next biggest hit after "It Only Takes A Minute" was "Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel", it peaked at #15 {for 2 weeks} on August 29th, 1976... In 1974 they had their first #1 record on the R&B Singles chart, a covered version of Daryl Hall and John Oates' "She's Gone"...
sauquoit13456 my favorites are the ones that many don't know of. " out of the picture, mighty power of love, wonderful, guiding star, break down for love, and the list goes on. Like I said before these guys are my personal GOAT!
I relate! In MI we danced at clubs to these in mid to late 70s! I was a clerk for SOM; recall getting thru tough days after dancing/partying all night! Same the next wk! Hearing this makes me wanna dance, maybe even under the influence of 1 or 2 :) Isn't RUclips a blessing? We can revisit a time & place for awhile! I recall dancing at "Bonnie & Clyde's" in Lansing, where a cute tough guy named Joe frm NYC wld be out dancing w/his shades on & a nice haircut -- we all had a crush!!! Good times!!!
The young artists can NEVER hold a candle to the great r and b of the 70's. Half the time, we had no idea of skin color...KC and the Sunshine band,...all we cared was could we blast it at a house party! Maybe the insanity of the world should take note that we are all humanbeings..post Vietnam, gas crisis, but boy could we dance!!
i got my license in 76-i had the 8 track player going too in my daddy's 74 fleetwood caddy. i'm not braggin, i was just very fortunate. man that car was huge!-like drivin' a mf'n sailboat...lol
Looks like Victor is filling in. Ralph left to work in court system and came back in 2014. . Tiny, Chubby Victor , Pooch, and Butch...( Victor is tall thin in white) 🎶💫🎶
real music real artists ,artists of this era set the standard so high that the kids of today don't have a clue what real music is ,sadly we have to endurePitbull, Beiber,JZ and other so called singers
I butch this is one the greastest songs out as good as the rest it good ya up on every thing the pase an speed those is the teen years their memories you guys are very lucky happy easter luv ya viva.
There is something so wonderfully 80's about this, every time I watch it. I LOVED this song, own the 45, but this remix is just fantastic!! We all looked good in the 80's, didn't we ???? Wolfsky9, 69 y/o
Sir, this video is what I'm referencing. I know the song came out in '74/75, but this vid. is so--SO, 80's. And the guys are having wayyyy too much fun ! ---------------Wolfsky9, 69 y/o Now
Sir, this remix --& the guys hair, should tell you in a minute, this is an 80's video, shot in the UK, where they were HUGE. --The hit song ? yes, mid 70's for certain. -------Wolfsky9
To WILDSTYLENYC: I relate! In MI we danced @ clubs to these! As a SOM clerk, days were tough after dancing/ partying all night! Same for next wk! I wanna dance when I hear this now, maybe have a shot or 2 !:) Isn't RUclips a blessing for revisiting times & places?! For awhile @ "Bonnie & Clyde's" dance club in Lansing, among many cuties, a tough guy named Joe frm NYC (Kennard called him Apple) wld be dancing @ night w/shades on & a nice haircut & my friends & I all had a crush!!! Fun times!!!
It's incredible and you're right, even better. Like fine wine! :) And those growls aren't on the studio version - woo-hoo! But such smooth vocals too. And I can't get the beat out of my head, it's almost like a Latin beat? And the calling in the background (to fall, to fall). This version has such a raw energy to it, because it's live, I guess. I just love it, I hadn't heard this version. It's now my favorite version. :)
One of the best group of the 70's miss their beautiful voice ❤
Love this performances and they have Victor in this!
REMEMBERING RALPH TAVARES
(December 10, 1941 - December 8, 2021)
[12/10/2021]
The best 0f time was the 70 & 80. We all were in a great place
where there was love & peace. There was no Woke. If only we could go back in time
The 70s would not have been the 70s without Tavares. Darn..these guys could sing.!!
I was a teen back then. Great memories, great times.!!
Love love tavares, great music and good looking men, listen to heaven must be missing an angel at least twice a day, I'm obsessed 😍
Fantastic group, my ever best song they did was Whodunit
Man, these guys can SING! Pure magic. Only a band of five brothers could pull this off. The lyrics are bittersweet and dead-on perfect.
These was the days when bruthas was fine as wine! Tight pants and all!
Ohhhh I love this version!! I dare anyone --ANYONE--alive, to sit still during this!! Power 80's Re-mix!! Wolfsky9.
The first time Ive ever seen Chubby without glasses. These guys were a monster talent...Love em!
El solista de llama chubby, el que llevaba gafas??, Era super sexi, y me encanta 😊
ohhhhhh...those delicious 70's!!
Great 80s version. Love this clip!

30年前のDISCOソング懐かしいな。
良くDISCOでDJとしてヘビロテしていました。歌ってる本人を初めて見ました。
Brings back so many good memories of my high school dances where disco was the thing!
Amazing
Simply brilliant. ❤

変わらず 素敵です💕
TAVARES lo máximo en música Disco.
Got my license in '75. Had this on 8 track. AM Radio was tops. FM converters coming on the scene. Memories! Brings me back. Love it.

This was a Top Ten in 1975, yet, it sounds like a tune that would have been recorded in The 80's. They were ahead of their time. WOW!

they will never know
Where are today's gentlemen??!! It only takes a minute.... of your self absorbed time..... to fall in love !
This is what a group sounds like when they're not a total studio group. You'd go to a concert and actually hear them sing. Man, I miss those days.
Pure 👌🏻...
i like how the two dudes on the left trade mics...never seen that before!
I listen to their music every day
HAPPY 66TH BIRTHDAY PERRY LEE "TINY" TAVARES (OCTOBER 24, 2015)

Que presentacion, tan grandiosa
Again Tiny (the youngest brother) should have sung more songs at lead vocal...and nice to see oldest brother Victor back filling in !
Ralph is the eldest
I definitely agree with you about Tiny, voice every bit as distinctive as say Teddy Pendergrass.
Amo todos eles, senti falta do Ralph, que já não estava na banda nessa época, mas Butch... Que coisa linda é esse homem...😍😍😍😍
Nice songs...
I'm the only one that this song remember the Dance Dance Revolution for PC??? xD. Great Song :)

WOW. This is what it was all about. Dance Moves with TAVARES, on a Saturday Night. Get Down on CHIC 790 D I S C O

Agreed!
It's incredible and you're right, even better. Like fine wine! :) And those growls aren't on the studio version - woo-hoo! But such smooth vocals too.
