You have to remember back then the competition was Extremely Tuff. There was so much talent back in the day, just way too much talent, other groups had the same problem, do you remember the group Mass Productions?
Absolutely a beautiful ballad. This music needs to come back. You can't think about drive-bys and senseless killing when listening to this kind of music.
Let me tell you... When Chubby stood up and they showed him singing close up I felt like running full speed towards my 55 inch flat screen TV and hugging it and kissing him on the screen because I felt like he was singing to meeeee!!!!🤗🤗🤗 LOL.but my boyfriend was sitting nearby soooooo that wouldn’t have been too cool. Oh well ,I had no choice but to come to my senses. Anyway, a girl can dream can't she ?? I love me some ANTONE CHUBBY TAVARES 💕💕💕😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰😘😘😘
Can you believe they had only 1 Top Ten hit? "It Only Takes A Minute" from 1975..... They were so underrated. In my opinion, they were the best R&B group of all time!!!
I have never heard this song by The Tavares! I have only heard the one by Jessie Belvin that my mother listened to. This guy made this version his own! He killed it!
Also recorded in 59 by Ray Peterson...beautiful version too. But Chubby knocked it out of park. Written by Barrh White when he was only a young teenager.
These guys are like my family . Keenia and myself will never forget what they did for Ally. We will always love them. Sadly Ralph has passed away and for a while now Pooch has retired . Great people, great voices and great song. Love you guys , always ❤🎼🎤🎶
From Near my home town also They are just too SuPerB for words!😃👍🌠🌛🌗✨‼️ Been going CRAZY over this song since age 13 , love it more than ever ✨🌗🧑🎄🌠🌗 UNBELIEVABLE jam 🌠🌗🌛
Chubby sounds so good. Tavares were one of the very best r&b group out of the 70s.. The brothers were harmonizing and so fine with it...my favorite brother is Tiny there on the end 😘
Memories of this song being played always include military NCO Club dances on the weekends. This was the last song of the night. Good times dancing with fellow soldiers. I never wanted the dance to end.
The finest R&B group of all time!!!! Four of them sang lead vocals...depending on the song. 70% of them were by Chubby....followed by Butch, the falsetto specialist. No one, past or present, had better vocals....and their writing was great too!!! I am proud to say Chubby is a friend of mine!! A real nice guy....
!!!💕💯❤ONE OF MY FAVORITE TRACKS FROM TAVARES AND ONE of THE best TRACKS ON THE BEST OF TAVARES ALBUM FROM 1977 STILL LISTENING Absolutely fantastic for me The 80's were so full of freedom, Joy and Happiness ! Through music we were one people The world has moved on But,this music will NEVER be forgotten By that very special generation that truly Cared for one another.Great memories!!!💕💯❤
Chubby is a friend of mine. He wishes they had recorded more as well....but when they stopped in 1983, music was starting to get kind of stupid. Their style might not have "cut it"
They are still performing. They are going to be in New Bedford, on Mother’s Day, 2023 playing at the Zeiterion theatre. I’m blessed by my daughter to have tickets. Can’t wait. Best wishes ♥️♥️🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸
This is the one of best R&B groups back in the 60’s. I saw them as a young person in Toronto. They were amazing and funny they still are in my opinion. We are all getting older but the music from there is the best. Music makes me so happy
NOTE: Tavares (also known as The Tavares Brothers) is an American R&B, funk and soul music group composed of five Cape Verdean-American brothers. Born and raised in Providence, Rhode Island, they would later move to New Bedford, Massachusetts. Tavares is: • Butch - Feliciano Tavares, born 18 May 1948. • Chubby - Antone Lee Tavares, born 2 June 1945. • Pooch - Arthur Lee Tavares, born 12 November 1943. • Ralph - Ralph Viera Tavares, born 10 December 1942. • Tiny - Perry Lee Tavares, born 24 October 1949. 1975 turned out to be their most successful year chartwise, with a Top 40 Pop album (In the City), the No. 25 hit "Remember What I Told You to Forget", and their biggest hit, the Top 10 Pop/No. 1 R&B smash "It Only Takes a Minute", which was later successfully covered by both Jonathan King and Take That, and sampled by Jennifer Lopez. They parlayed this success into a spot as an opening act for The Jackson 5. KC and The Sunshine Band was also on this tour. "Minute" was followed by a string of hits: "Heaven Must Be Missing an Angel" (1976), "Don't Take Away the Music" (1976), and "Whodunit" (1977, another No. 1 R&B hit).
Gracias por subir este video. Nunca tuve la oportunidad de comprar discos de Tavares. Nunca es tarde para disfrutarlos. Tengo 62 y es 2024. Sencilla pero hermosa canción.
The last song that was usually played at Roseland Ballroom, late 70's, age 19 years old and made sure I had that last dance with a lovely senorita before the club closed at 4am!
Wow I love The tavares Brothers what are they saying disco or love ballads they're the greatest they were so underrated but we can still listen to him in 2020 and on and on and on stay safe everyone
One of my top ten along with one of their lesser know hits “strangers in dark corners “ I think Tavares is so underrated but those of us who are fans know that their one of the best ever
WHAT AN ABSOLUTE BEAUTIFUL TRACK...THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE TRACKS FROM TAVARES.....FROM 1977 STILL LISTEN TO THIS TRACK....GOT IT ON VINYL...Absolutely fantastic The 70's AND 80 ES FOR ME WERE so full of freedom Joy and Happiness AND GREAT BANDS LIKE TAVARES...SINGING BEAUTIFUL MUSIC 😎
Right away I knew they would make Jesse proud. OUTSTANDING job singing this once in a lifetime love ballad. In the 60's many a baby got conceived in the back seat of a car during this song.
Wow that's really one of my favourite song too I have gone through it like couple of times and still can't get enough you seem like a good music lover?
1956 beautiful song sung by Jessie Belvins. Written by john Mascasolto and George Mortolo..always HATED for this wonderful dreamy song to be played by DJ ay school Dances.I always meant the magic of the night was over. I was in 9th grade....in 1959. Ray Peterson recorded it which was prettier...and dancing with my first puppy love, David. 💞 Then in 1975 Chubby Tevares along with pooch' tiny ' Butch' and Ralph knocked it out of the park. love this....what memories! 🎶💕🎶
Hermosa canción la escuche por primera vez en el año de 1977 me gusto mucho y me sigue gustando se la dedicaba a la que ahora es mi esposa me trae gratos recuerdos.
The Tavares brothers were never recognized enough.
You have to remember back then the competition was Extremely Tuff. There was so much talent back in the day, just way too much talent, other groups had the same problem, do you remember the group Mass Productions?
Real Singers were never recognized....that's how the music Industry was years ago.
❤
So VASTLY UNDER RATED !!!!!!! THE MIGHTY TAVARES BROTHERS !!!!!
Absolutely a beautiful ballad. This music needs to come back. You can't think about drive-bys and senseless killing when listening to this kind of music.
Amen
We can hope, Mike. The kids have nothing like this. We had such wonderful and inspirational music!!!!
Our people just so blessed brings tears to
My eyes
I WHOLEHEARTEDLY AGREE 💯

Lets keep the legacy alive! 🤎📻🎹🥁🎸🎼🎤🎙️🎵
Played as the last song of the night at most of the teen dances back in the 60's. Great memories!
Excellent harmonies. I could listen to them over and over.

Chubby has such a great underrated voice !
Who says his voice is underrated?
Never heard nothing but rave reviews
As great as they sounded they should have been "Bigger"...
They just blend so well together but Butch is my favorite.
My beloved cousin Jessie Belvin the greatest song EVER!!
There are all good cooking but the singer is my favorite lol💋💝💖🌹🦋🌷👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Love this version..it's my lullaby song before I close my eyes...
AGREED!!! I came up with a tagline for them:
Better than Motown or Philly Soul....TAVARES!!!

Absolutely Beautiful song by the Tarveres solo and background singing !😀😀😀
They were one of the greats. I don't understand why their careers didn't have longevity. The brothers were fabulous.
Chubby is a friend of mine. He wishes they had recorded more as well....but when they stopped in 1983, music was starting to get kind of stupid. Their style might not have "cut it"
They are still doing shows..

Right away I knew they would make Jesse proud. OUTSTANDING job singing this once in a lifetime love ballad. In the 60's many a baby got conceived in the back seat of a car during this song.
I remember seeing this and thought, man Chubby could really sing. This was live, no auto tune back then.
These cats could run the Tempts close. The harmonisation is wonderful.
I really appreciate this music
Absolutely my favorite group of all time.
BEST VERSION EVER !!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤Paul 🇺🇸
