This is some footage of Little Anthony & The Imperials from 4 or 5 years ago, it's taken from a brilliant doo-wop concert which also features Jerry Butler, Lloyd Price, Bobby Lewis, Lou Christie, The Reflections, The Rays and so on and so on. Anyway Anthony does 4 numbers I think including Hurt So Bad and they are so professional and brilliant I was wondering why no-one has ever bought them to the UK. Here they are doing Going Out Of My Head and you have to say that they are almost as good as they were in the 60's. (I wanted to put Hurt So Bad up but youtube kept thinking it was a duplicate. The Hurt So Bad from this show had me welling up!)

Great clip. I lived in Brooklyn for a few yewars until recently and used to see them every summer at the Brooklyn Academy of Music (for free!) and they definately still have it. Would be great to see them overr here.

...Apparently they do not come cheap, so people who have thought about bringing them over have told me...

I'll do you a copy of the dvd mate.

Please, just Richie though, last time I said I'd do a dvd I ended up doing 38 of them :lol:

I agree with Tone, they are not cheap, I came across a web site by accident approx a year ago, some agency thingy!!, anyway the prices were very high, so I passed the info onto a good friend of mine who promotes live acts of all types of music to see if he could get a deal, and this guy has had Solomon Burke on in Newcastle just recently and he knows his stuff, he got back to me saying it was not worth the risk what they were asking.He told me he tried all ways to get a deal but could not.

It's a great shame as they would go down a storm over here and on the continent,lets hope someday someone will take a risk and they perfrom live in the UK
