FORTUNES PROFILE Hailing from Birmingham, England, The Fortunes first came to prominence and international acclaim during that Golden Era of Popular Music - the swinging mid-sixties. Following on in the wake of Merseybeat, and the R&B of The Stones, etc., The Fortunes added another dimension to the sound of the classic pop song with their special ingredients of sophisticated orchestration, dual lead vocals and stylish counter-melodies. As far back as 1963, The Fortunes released their first song Summertime Summertime; on the contrary it was not until Caroline the jingle used on board the Radio Station of the same name that started the ball rolling. Their first major chart breakthrough came with the release of Youve Got Your Troubles in 1965 penned by the hit making songwriters Roger Cook & Roger Greenaway (alias David & Jonathan). The follow up Here It Comes Again a Les Reed and Barry Mason composition swiftly returned The Fortunes into the pop charts once again. Early 1966 and they were back in the top 20 with This Golden Ring, Whilst in America in the mid 60s they had the opportunity to provide much needed vocals to those great world-wide Coca Cola jingles, being Things Go Better With Coke, Good Times & Its The Real Thing. The late 60s and The Fortunes entered the Dutch charts with Seasons In The Sun long before Terry Jacks decided to cut the song here in the UK. It was not until they teamed up with their new songwriter producers Cook & Greenaway in 1970 that put them up in the UK charts once again with Freedom Come Freedom Go and also claiming chart position in the USA with Here Comes That Rainy Day Feeling Again. January 1972 and they were brewing up trouble in the charts with Storm In A Teacup. The Fortunes have been touring ever since and have notched up European sales with numerous new recordings, including the 1987 Dutch chart album All The Hits And More. The Fortunes latest album Some Bridges has been dedicated to the memory of Barry Baz Pritchard. Founder Member Rod Allen has been fronting The Fortunes as Lead Vocalist since 1963. His powerful, versatile voice is unmistakeable, and in the view of many fellow artists and fans alike, considered to be exceptional, if not the best on the circuit. Longstanding members Paul Hooper (drums) and Michael Smitham (guitar) ensure the groups unique blend of harmonies is backed up with a high standard of musical ability honed by many years of experience. This ensures that The Fortunes performances exude class and professionalism. In March 1995 vocalist/keyboard/guitar player Bob Jackson was added to The Fortunes ranks. Bob was no stranger to fame, as he was previously a member of Badfinger. During The Fortunes set, apart from sharing vocal duties with Rod, Bob leads the band through a tribute to his former group, including a version of the Badfinger-penned classic Without You, made famous by Nillson, and more recently Maria Carey. Although The Fortunes show concentrates on the hits of Yester-year, the combination of Rod and Bobs alternating lead vocals together with the groups dynamic musical versatility allows them to stretch their repertoire over a wide range of material; thus giving them the luxury of performing many of the great songs from the beginnings of Rock and Roll to the present day. As a testament to The Fortunes continued popularity you need look no further than to the Gold Disc they were awarded in 1987 for over 100,000 sales of the All The Hits and More album. The group remain as popular as ever, and are constantly in demand to do TV and radio shows, along with their live concerts. The Fortunes continue to attract rave reviews and new fans wherever they appear.
