IS THIS THE WORST RECORD EVER MADE?
In 1979 Ian and Rob had a top 30 hit with a cover version of the Grease hit 'You're The One That I Want. It was recorded by 50's and 60's Sitcom stars Arthur Mullard and Hylda Baker and every time Channel 4 does 'The Worst Records of All Time' it features in the top 3 and sometimes wins!
The Music Video which was made at a Fairground in Burnham Beeches in the pouring rain is also consistently featured in the 'Worst Ever Music Video Chart'.
Rob commented "The record was storming up the chart and sold over 270,000 in one morning, but we then made the mistake of doing Top Of The Pops. Unfortunately neither Arthur nor Hylda could remember the words, so Ian, myself and co-producer Kenny Lynch had to hold up large idiot boards with them on. The trouble was that neither of them were wearing their glasses, so they couldn't read them anyway. After TOTP the record died an instant death."
