The wondrous and delightful voice of Tony William of The Platters, showers unassailable memories of the the mid 1950’s to the present era of the 2022’s that refuses to be erased from my minds. It remains an unforgettable beacon that doesn’t fade away through the test of times. I particularly dedicate their songs to those who lived in the era of the Original Platters and to relive and listen to their wonderful repertoire of songs they belted out in those years. Gone are the days but never forgotten.
THANK GOD, WE'RE FORTUNATE, FRANCIS, TO STILL BE ABLE TO HO ON ENJOYING THE PLATTERS" MERCURY PLATTERS AT THIS POINT OF OUR LIVES...ME AT 73 YEARS!!! CIRCA 50's, I SAW THEIR PERFORMANCE HERE IN THE PHILIPPINES...ON A REVOLVING STAGE!!!
I got ya beat. I remember, like it was yesterday, sitting in the back seat of my parents' car when I was 12 and the Platters' new song 'My Prayer' came on the car radio. 1956. None of us knew the name Tony Williams, just the Platters, but he deserved the same recognition any soloist got. He WAS the Platters. He had the greatest pop/R&B voice of that entire precious vocal group era.. I ran into an older Williams in the men's room of a concert in Brooklyn in the early 1980's. He could hardly sing anymore. But there he was, the great Tony Williams, taking a leak in the urinal next to mine, and he was drunk. Saddens me to this day! But I'm happy the Platters were so successful and that Williams got to shine. I wouldn't trade being young and growing up in those musical times for anything else.
Jamás se volverá a formar un grupo como este, que voces, que bonitos arreglos, y la voz impresionante y dulce del vocalista, quedarán ahí como una hoja de su tiempo que tracendio
Yo los ecuche por primera vez en 1957 ahi nos conocimos con mi marido 6 de novios 59 de casados y hace 5 meces que fallecio yo tenia 13 años y el 16. Toda la vida juntos lo extraño mucho mi 💘
It must have been wonderful to have been in the audience when this group was performing and getting the chance to witness Tony Williams' angelic voice in person ❤
When I was a kid, I would hear then on the radio. Not even a teen yet. and I liked to listen to them. Now that I am almost 76 years old ( in two months ) I realize just how fantastic they were. Their story deserves more then just a mare two minutes. God bless them and all like them that brings wonderful music to our humble ears.
Your story is the same as mine.👍🏻 I’m 76 and totally understand. This makes the modern music and the performers of to day look really terrible. This my old friend is the definition of class. What happened?
Love this video. There really are no words to describe Tony Williams' voice. He was by far the best lead singer any vocal group ever had. It seems like only yesterday to me when the Platters filled the airwaves, but those days are in fact only fond memories now.
I SO ENVY THE PEOPLE WHO WERE FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO LISTEN AND EXPERIENCE THIS GOLDEN MOMENT IN TIME , IM 65 AND FEEL AND AGREE TO THE LYRICS OF A SONG BY THE PONYTAILS "WHY WAS I BORN TO LATE" ABSERLUTLY WONDERFUL MUSIC 🎶 😊👌👍🏴
Além das vozes belíssimas e da elegância, tiveram a felicidade de ter um repertório impecável de músicas de grande sucesso mundial, como o eterno Only You. Foram os reis do Doo-wop, estilo que eu adoro.
Great post. Always loved the Platters. Each of the original group a singles singer in their own right. Tony Williams of course with possibly the most appealing and most recognised male pop voice of all time. Herb Reed the one who most kept that original sound alive. Never ever be another group to match them. RIP each of you. You will always be remembered.
Tony Williams voice is magical, beautiful and sensitive. The Platters were one of my favorite groups and I do love to hear their timeless voices and their timeless songs.❤❤❤❤😊
My father used to play their records when i was a kid in the sixties and up till now I still love them! I miss my father. Yes I agree that this is the best platters! Thanks for posting this. Keep safe everyone!
Real music!! Some of the best. Love it. Was in college when this song came out on my AM radio. Listen to the Platters many songs back during those years, 1958 though 1962. Thanks for the memories.
His voice makes me nostalgic for a time I never lived in. This old soul of mine is in the wrong era. I hope when I die, heaven is living out the dreams you had in life but could never have. One of mine has always been to see all these past great singers at their peak in one place. A concert for the ages. A concert that lasts forever.
GOODNESS GRACIOUS! WHAT AN ELECTRIFYING, ENGROSSING 2~SONG EUROPE~BY~NIGHT CLIPPING of THE ONE IN MILLION PLATTERS!! MUCH OBLIGED for the PREMIUM POSTING!!! AS A LITTLE LAD, I SAW THEM PERFORM IN THE PHILIPPINES DURING THE 50's ON A REVOLVING STAGE!!!
Fantastic footage, best I've seen, BIG thanks for posting this !. Great to read the deserved praise for Tony Williams, but let's not forget their great sound was a group effort, including the lovely Zola Taylor and that bass-man Herb Reed, both are with Tony now teaching the angels how to really sing. RIP Tony, Herb and Zola.
Groupe fabuleux avec la voix exceptionnelle de Tony Williams, le groupe n'avait aucun éclat après son départ.C'était une formation unique avec ces interprétations qui nous faisaient frissonner grâce au 1er ténor.Presque 60 ans , et on ne se lasse pas de les écouter.Cette formation de1954 à 1960
I loved my teen years and this group was a big part of it. Generally I miss this music and what it represents to me. Thank you for the opportunity to enjoy it again.
Graças a Deus por essas vozes abençoadas que nos agraciam até hoje. Para mim o melhor grupo vocal de todos os tempos. Como eu gostaria de tê-los acompanhado de 1953 a 1961.
EU MORAVA NA FAZENDA QUANDO ASSISTI A ESSE FILME. LEMBRO-ME QUE ERA BEM CRIANÇA. "EUROPA DI NOTE". NUNCA ESQUECI ESSE MOMENTO. APESAR DE SER CRIANÇA, FIQUEI FASCINADO PELO FILME. Isso foi no final dos anos 50 ou começo dos anos 60. Não me lembro bem.
Ngayon ko lang nakitang nagperpporm itong platters.tony williams el tereble ang galing ng boses.masarap pakinggan kanilang mga canta 74 na ako at lagi silang pinanonood sa you tube..

Por la preciosa voz de Toni Williams, los Platters fueron famosísimos.
the velvet voice of Tony Williams is pure magic.
It will never be the same ever with this kind of music.
Tony Williams voice is so smooth...Platters were one of my favorite groups.
My Prayer.❤️❤️❤️❤️
El mejor grupo de norteamérica,ellos estuvieron en Caracas, Venezuela en el año 1959.Todo un éxito,por siempre.
De verdad no jodas, en venezuela estuvieron todos los grandes antes de lo Arturo SOsa y su socialismo del siglo XXI.
No le sabía! En dónde se presentaron?
Estiveram também no Brasil na capital da República do Rio de Janeiro.
The Platters were brilliant and Tony Williams a fantastic singer. Today you dont find anyone to compare.
I'm avid fan of them...
Have a look at stupid Freddy Mercury version, which really confirms what you just said.
Yes Tony Williams is brilliant ,they're incomparable until now ❤

The unique sound of the Platters, Tony Williams had such a great sense of timing.expression and voice control.

Used to listen to the Platters as a preteen. Now at 74 their music is much appreciated. Thank you for taking us back to simpler times.
Never get tired of listening to this guy
Were and always will be, the best❤
I was born in 1950, and so fortunate to have had been introduced to their music in my home.

Jamás. El mejor grupo de todos los tiempos.
The brilliant magic of Tony Williams, Zola Taylor and the Platters..
Simply superb. I love the backup singers, and Tony Williams IS THE MAN.
Yes I love listening to them even after midnight ❤
Platters right next to the Flamingos the best sound for that time. Was a great time
Wish it were back 😢 …
It must have been wonderful to have been in the audience when this group was performing and getting the chance to witness Tony Williams' angelic voice in person ❤
Yeslord
I can’t stop watching his eyes and smile😍
The Smile Of Tony Hides the deep sorrow, Of The Upcoming end of the Platters 😢

Greetings from Chile. I fell in love with my wife while dancing The Platters's songs. We are happily married since 1972.

ABSERLUTLY WONDERFUL MUSIC 🎶 😊👌👍🏴
The best lineup ever in American Dowup history!😅😢😮😅Mike the Swede born nov 1955.
@@MikaelSoderberg-ob3pp The Platters owe their greatness to their lead singer Tony Williams. And they were more of an R&B pop group than doo-wop.
Glad all of you enjoy The Platters. I’ve been listening to them for 69 years.
FOI O MELHOR CONJUNTO DA MINHA INFANCIA ATÉ HOJE E NUNCA AVERA MELHOR.

Sure, I do love to hear their songs, the real Platters.

Tony Williams had one of those voices that don’t come along all that often. My all time favorite two songs by the platters!!!
Ouvi-los é a forma que tenho pra driblar o tempo, pois eles me fazem voltar ao passado, por sinal ilustrado por lindas músicas como essa ! Thank you!
cresci ouvindo estas músicas. fazem parte da minha vida.
tive oportunidade de assistir um show em Natal, no auditório da Riachuelo.

The Plattrs... isto e mais que um conjunto... e uma constelacao de estrelas de grande brilho nos ceus. Criada pelo nosso Deus.
I saw them in the Mid 1990's and talked to the guy on the left. But I agree this is the best of all the Platter groups.
These songs are fantastic!
Adoro.muito bom!!!!!!!!tudo de bom.que riqueza!!!!!!!
Songs: "You'll never, never know" and "My Dream" (Rio, 3/9/20).
I loved my teen years and this group was a big part of it. Generally I miss this music and what it represents to me. Thank you for the opportunity to enjoy it again.
