We like to think we have brought you some very special shows over the
last 12 years, but we're particularly delighted to announce a rare
chance to see an act of truly sheer class -- The Original Voice of The
Rubettes, PAUL DA VINCI ("Sugar Baby Love" and his band 60s/70s
Explosion in our CHRISTMAS CONCERT at 8pm on Saturday, November 25.
The other top-class act for the night will be THE TORNADOS of "Telstar"
and Billy Fury fame. THE TORNADOS are led by original 60s keyboard
player DAVE WATTS and also feature SHAUN CORRIGAN, original member of
THE SYMBOLS who had hits in the 60s with "Bye Bye Baby" and "The Best
Part Of Breaking Up".
PAUL's vocals, featuring his incredible three-and-a-half octave range,
gave the The Rubettes an international No.1 hit with "Sugar Baby Love".
It sold more than eight million copies worldwide . He sang all the lead
vocals on the record, including the high falsetto, and was also lead
vocalist on the b side of the record "You Could Have Told Me".
He had several other chart successes in the 70s and 80s as a solo artist
with his own compositions "Your Baby Ain't Your Baby Anymore" and "If
You Get Hurt".
PAUL was also the lead vocalist on TIGHT FIT'S big hits "Back To The
Sixties Part II" and "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" in the early 80s.
Besides their massive worldwide No.1 "Telstar"and other instrumental
hits, THE TORNADOS were also BILLY FURY's backing group, so expect to
hear all those memorable numbers like "Halfway To Paradise", "A Thousand
Stars", "Like I've Never Been Gone", "In Thoughts Of You" and "Do You
Really Love Me Too".
