Fabulous, I have memories of them when they were playing the working mens clubs back in the day, they used to appear at Essington Working Mens Club, which my family went to. My folks brought their single "She looked my way"

I saw the Black Abbots live a few times, the bass player had a seriously good voice.

I saw the Black Abbots on Jersey in Sept 1978 when I was 16 - very funny (then)

Love it! Not seen this clip before.

One of Michael Caine's Not Many People Know That books said that the country of Brazil is named after the brazil nut and not the other way round. Similarly Russ Abbot is named after the Black Abbots and not the other way round.
