Re: brotherhood of man.

They were a poor man's ABBA but were actually BEFORE ABBA.
I like "Angelo","Where are you going to my love?","Boy,oh boy", and "My sweet Rosalie"

Re: brotherhood of man.

I#ve watched a fair bit of them on Youtube and they're better than I remembered but blatantly copy Abba at times e.g Angelo but it's good to see they're still going strong and putting on a good show.

Re: brotherhood of man.

They are still on the go now, all four original members. We go to a 70's weekend at Butlins every march and they are usually on there. The whole place goes mad when they come on!! Mental! I think it's because they are still ALL the original members as opposed to a band only comprising 1 original member and 4 others . That's my take on it anyway. They are great live though

Re: brotherhood of man.

Save Your Kisses For Me is one of my earliest song memories and always brings a smile to my face when I hear it. The Uk's version of Abba they were never quite as good though.

british pop group who won the eurovision song contest in 1976 with save your kisses for me. The group was created by songwriter and record producer tony hiller in 1969 and scored a worldwide hit with united we stand
the following year. By 1974 the line up had changed to the quartet Brotherhood of Man would become best known for. The group became successful in Europe, before returning to do the same in the UK. After winning the Eurovision Song Contest in 1976, Brotherhood of Man enjoyed three years of hit singles and albums.
Following a decline in sales, the group split, but reformed two years later and are still performing shows throughout Europe and have occasionally released independently-produced albums.
