He started his musical life at the age of 17 (1960) in a duo called the ‘Grant Brothers’ and until 1969 he simply fronted bands. In 1969 he signed up with MCA records and then came his hits such as ‘Amarillo’ and ‘I did what I did for Maria’ and so Many more.
The 70’s were massive for Tony with him selling over 10 million records. The 80’s were a slow down due to the change in musical taste in the nation, however he was awarded the award ‘Die Golden Europa’ by German radio for superb showmanship.
The 90’s led to more hits such as the song ‘Sweet September’ and the song by Jarvis Cocker, ‘Walk like a Panther’.
Then came the phone call that brought Tony to be one of the biggest artists still going today. Peter Kay brought Tony to a whole new Generation of youth with the song ‘(Is this the way to) Amarillo’ and ‘Avenues and Allyways’ off of Phoenix Nights.
Tony is still going strong and he got into the football spirit with ‘(Is this the way to) The World Cup’.
