Born and raised in Providence, Rhode Island, they would later move to New Bedford, Massachusetts. Tavares is: • Butch - Feliciano Tavares, born 18 May 1948. • Chubby - Antone Lee Tavares, born 2 June 1945. • Pooch - Arthur Lee Tavares, born 12 November 1943. • Ralph - Ralph Viera Tavares, born 10 December 1942. • Tiny - Perry Lee Tavares, born 24 October 1949. 1975 turned out to be their most successful year chartwise, with a Top 40 Pop album (In the City), the No. 25 hit “Remember What I Told You to Forget“, and their biggest hit, the Top 10 Pop/No. 1 R&B smash “It Only Takes a Minute“, which was later successfully covered by both Jonathan King and Take That, and sampled by Jennifer Lopez. They parlayed this success into a spot as an opening act for The Jackson 5. KC and The Sunshine Band was also on this tour. “Minute“ was followed by a string of hits: “Heaven Must Be Missing an Angel“ (1976), “Don’t Take Away the Music“ (1976), and “Whodunit“ (1977, another No. 1 R&B hit). ’Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel’ was no. 1 in the Netherlands Top 40 in 1976.
