One Tremendous Night Out – The 60’s Gold Tour

Oct 19, 2022 | Review Beat

Once again an all-star lineup is doing the rounds and will please 60’s fans everywhere…

REVIEW by Ian Woolley

Billed as the Sixties Gold ‘The All Hits Show’, once again promoters Robert Pratt and Alan Field keep it simple with tried and tested acts that are well versed in keeping their audiences happy.

A near-full Bournemouth Pavilion was where I caught up with the show which started on 11th October. With four dates under their belt already, the show worked smoothly. The 2002 tour has been trimmed to 30 dates and will end on 27th November in Edinburgh.

With the introduction on stage from Ally Bally welcoming the audience, the first up was Spencer James (Searchers) with his band. Backing him was The three-piece 60’s Explosion, consisting of Tony Carey, Graham Clowe, and Richie Burns. All the hits were there – “ Needles and Pins ”, “ Don’t Throw Your Love Away ”, “ Sweets For My Sweets ” and “ When You Walk In The Room “. Spencer hinted that next year he may be joined by former Searchers John McNally and Frank Allen. We’ll have to wait and see on that one.

Next up was Gerry’s Pacemakers. Since their lead singer Gerry Marsden retired in 2018, keyboardist and singer Tony Young has carried on his legacy. An able replacement for Gerry is their new charismatic frontman Rob Lineacre. These days they are joined by John Summerton, Darren Tingey, and pork-pie-wearing drummer Rick Medlock. “ I’m The One “, “ Don’t Let The Sun Catch You Crying ” (dedicated to Marsden by Tony beforehand), “ How Do You Do It? “, “ I Like It “, “ Ferry ‘Cross The Mersey ” and the last number “ You’ll Never Walk Alone “.

With the band supporting the next act up, Gary Puckett, sometimes gremlins can occur when your change around time is tried to keep to a minimum. As Gary walked on dressed in his familiar US Confederate cape, their first number “ Lady Willpower ” left out the accompanying backing guitars. This meant that only the keyboard and the vocals could be heard but Gary Puckett, being the true professional he is, carried on regardless. Next up was “ Over You ” and a cover of Manfred Mann’s “ Mighty Quinn “.

Mentioning that Melody Radio’s most requested song was his “ Woman, Woman “, off came his cape to belt out the classic. Dedicated to Roy Orbison, his tribute to the singer was the ever-popular “ Pretty Woman “. His final number was his only UK chart-topper “Young Girl” and after the first standing ovation of the evening, announced he would be in the foyer at the break to sign his merchandise.

His voice is still as powerful as it ever was and the audience’s appreciation showed he still has that sex appeal. After Puckett had left the stage, Ally Bally announced that it would be Gary’s 80th birthday the following Monday.

Barry Whitwam at the Pavilion (credit Ian Woolley)

Herman’s Hermits started off the second set with original drummer Barry Whitwam who has been in the band since they were formed in 1964. “ I’m Into Something Good ” and “ Wonderful World “. Barry came center stage to tell the audience about the time he met Elvis Presley on the day they were meant to come back to England after their US tour. You need to see the show yourself if you’d like to know what happened. With so many hits down the years, “ No Milk Today “, “Sunshine Girl”, “ My Sentimental Friend ” and “ There’s A Kind Of Hush ” were all there to keep the crowd happy along with band members Geoff Foot, Tony Hancox, and Jamie Thurston. Jamie’s rendition of “ Mrs. Brown, You’ve Got a Lovely Daughter” complete with a mock Peter Noone Manchurian accent was a highlight.

Ally came back on stage to announce there was a 96-year-old fan in the audience and had everyone singing happy birthday.

Alan and Sandy at the Pavilion (credit Quiz Britain)

Marmalade was the first Scottish group to top the UK charts and during the late ’60s and early ’70s, provided us with clever pop songs with great harmonies.

The longest-serving member of the group is Sandy Newman and of late his joined by son John James Newman. Other members are Jan Robinson, Chris North and the zany Alan Holmes. “ Rainbow “, “ Lovin’ Things ”, “ Reflections of My Life ”, “ Falling Apart at The Seams ”, “ Wait For Me Mary-Anne ” and “ Radancer ” were excellent in their delivery.

Finishing with the Lennon & McCartney composed No1 smash hit “ Ob-la-Di Ob-la-Da ”, and the madcap moment and highlight for me of the whole evening was Alan Holmes’s trademark cartwheel in front of the stage which brought out applause and cheers from all those who witnessed it. The band always looks like they are enjoying playing and it comes across this throughout their set.

The Hawkes at the Pavilion (credit Quiz Britain)

Last on was the Tremeloes but sadly no Len ‘Chip’ Hawkes as advertised (due to ill health). So the group’s current lineup these days features son Chesney Hawkes (who had solo success himself in the 1980s), his 16-year-old son Indi, brother Jodie, and Al Vosper and Martin Kennedy.

Selling in excess of 100 Million records worldwide during their chart success, the hits chosen were “ Me And My Life “, “ Suddenly You Love Me ”, “ Even The Bad Times Are Good ”, “ Here Comes My Baby ” (with audience whistling encouraged) and “ (Call Me) Number One ”. A family dedication to dad Chip with a song that his father wrote when he met his wife-to-be – “ My Little Lady “. Chesney’s wit when he sang the opening line of his 80’s No.1 “ The One and Only” pleased the crowd.

“That’s all your going to get” he announced.

On their last number (former chart-topper) “ Silence Is Golden ” you couldn’t hear a pin drop throughout the theatre. Excellent harmonising by all five members and very true to the original sound. ‘Chip’ can sleep easier these days knowing that his group is in good hands. The confident and charismatic lead singer has matured into making the next generation of the Tremeloes an easy one. Even when the bad times are good!

With Marmalade meeting the fans afterward in the foyer, the audience went home happy, including their 96-year-old attendee!

Don’t miss this great musical trip down that 60’s memory lane. It’s a ‘trem’ endous night out!

The Sixties Gold ‘The All Hits Show is touring now until 27th November. For more information and tickets, go to www.sixtiesgold.com

HIT BAND - Young Girl, Lady Willpower, Woman Woman and many more.

1967 saw 'Woman, Woman' issued as the first in a run of 7 single releases for the Union Gap (featuring Gary Puckett) charting at No.4

Over the next 4 years, more chart success followed with influential hits including 'Lady Willpower' 'Over You' 'This Girl is a Woman Now'  & the 1968 iconic worldwide No.1 'Young Girl'.

During this golden period, Union Gap also recorded six successful studio albums which were released on both sides of the Atlantic.

In 1974 'Young Girl' was re-released in the UK reaching No.6

Fast forward to today & 'Union Gap' (UK) faithfully recreate the original sounds of the  'Union Gap' chart hits from 1968-1974 and more.

During 2017 and 2018 The Union Gap uk toured with Gary Puckett in the UK and Europe and for this, they were billed simply as 'Gary Puckett and the Union Gap' celebrating 50 years since 'Young Girl' was released.

As a side note, Gary Puckett fully endorses the band.

Tom Harding - guitar/vocals (one-time member of 'Honeybus')  who has been with the band continuously for the past twenty years.

Plus the more recent additions of Paul Grogan - drums/backing vocals (ex Charlie Lansborough - appearing with Sir Cliff Richard in 1996) & Simon Paul - bass/vocals (who has a background in various musical genres from West End Stage shows to supporting various Chart Acts during the 1990s).

The band continues to perform on all the major 60's festivals in the UK and abroad together with appearances for major UK holiday resorts and has also found time to be part of a premier 60's theatre tour.

Happy Together Tour – THE TURTLES, GARY PUCKETT & THE UNION GAP, THE ASSOCIATION, THE BUCKINGHAMS, THE VOGUES, and THE COWSILLS

GOING INTO ITS 13TH YEAR, THE HIT-FILLED PACKAGE TOUR RETURNS, THE “HAPPY TOGETHER” TOUR

The line-up features returning favorites and new additions: The Turtles, Gary Puckett & the Union Gap, The Association, The Buckinghams, The Vogues, and The Cowsills.

2022 will mark the 13th year of the highly successful, hit-filled summer package, THE “HAPPY TOGETHER” TOUR. The touring sensation that has crisscrossed the nation delighting audiences for over a decade returns this summer with a show full of chart-topping hits from the ‘60s and ‘70s – an undeniable 61 Billboard Top 40 smashes.

The Tour is once again joined by THE TURTLES, who also act as musical hosts for the evening. Along with THE TURTLES will be GARY PUCKETT & THE UNION GAP, THE ASSOCIATION, THE BUCKINGHAMS, THE VOGUES, and THE COWSILLS.

THE TURTLES are best known for their harmony-heavy California pop sound. With such hits as “Elenore,” “She’d Rather Be With Me,” “It Ain’t Me Babe,” “You Showed Me” and the title of the tour, “Happy Together,” the band ruled the airwaves in the late ‘60s. Ron Dante joins the line-up to delight with his own mega-hits, “Sugar Sugar” and “Tracy.”

We are thrilled to have GARY PUCKETT & THE UNION GAP back on THE “HAPPY TOGETHER” TOUR. Gary’s trademark voice will be belting out his hits one more time. Fans will affectionately remember “Young Girl,” “Over You,” “Woman, Woman,” “This Girl Is A Woman Now,” “Lady Willpower,” “Don’t Give In To Him” and more.

Also returning to the tour for 2022 are THE ASSOCIATION, who enjoyed massive radio success in the ‘60s with such #1 hits as “Cherish,” “Windy,” “Never My Love” and “Along Comes Mary”. This iconic vocal group was a staple on the radio airways in the 1960s.

THE BUCKINGHAMS were formed in 1966, and went on to become one of the top-selling acts of the late 1960s, including their #1 hit “Kind of a Drag,” and other hits “Don’t You Care,” ”Mercy, Mercy, Mercy” and “Hey Baby, They’re Playing Our Song.” With 3 chart hits at one time on 2 labels in 1967, Billboard Magazine named them “The Most Listened to Band in America.”

THE VOGUES are also known for their harmony-driven soaring pop sound. THE VOGUES had numerous Top 10 hits with singles such as “Five O’Clock World”, “You’re The One,” “My Special Angel” and “Turn Around Look At Me,” among others.

Rounding out the bill are THE COWSILLS, the harmonious family act (two brothers and a sister) that inspired the smash ‘60s hit television show, THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY. They are sure to delight with their best-known songs, “Hair,” “Indian Lake,” “The Rain The Park & Other Things (I Love The Flower Girl)” and more.

The tour has played more than 50 plus shows a year and 2022 will be no exception.
