The Hudson Brothers is an American music group formed in Portland, Oregon in the 1970s and consisting of Bill Hudson, Brett Hudson and Mark Hudson. Their popular songs have included "So You Are a Star" (1974), "Rendezvous" (1975), "Lonely School Year" (1975), and "Help Wanted" (1976). ==History== Their first musical group, ''The New Yorkers'', was named after the Chrysler automobile after the winning of a "battle of the bands"-type contest. In spring 1967 they released "When I'm Gone" (SCE-12190) on Scepter Records, following that in August 1967 with "Mr. Kirby" (SCE-12199) and then "Show Me The Way To Love" (SCE-12207) in autumn 1967. By October 1968, ''The New Yorkers'' had switched to Jerry Dennon's Pacific Northwest label Jerden Records and issued "Adrianne" (#906), following that up with "Land of Ur" (#908) in March 1969. Later in 1969 ''The New Yorkers'' also recorded "Lonely" (#7318) for Warner Bros. Records and "I Guess The Lord Must Be In New York City" (#32569) for Decca Records. On Decca Records they changed their name to ''Everyday Hudson'' in early 1970, releasing "Love Is The Word" (#32634). For the release in spring 1971 of "Love Nobody" on Lionel Records (L-3211), their name was shortened to ''Hudson''. This name was also used in 1972 after switching to the newly re-activated Playboy Records, with the release of "Leavin' It's Over" (originally "Leave And It's Over", the song was mislabeled by Playboy, and it has never been corrected) (P-50001), Billboard Bubbling Under Chart #110. In 1973, ''Hudson'' signed with Elton John's record label named The Rocket Record Company and released "If You Really Need Me" (MCA-40141), which was recorded in France and produced by Bernie Taupin and mixed by Andy Scott . It was followed by "Sunday Driver" (MCA-40317). Their first record release as ''The Hudson Brothers'' came in September 1974 with their chart record "So You Are A Star" on Casablanca Records (NES 0108; Billboard #21), followed by "Coochie Coochie Coo" (NES 816) in 1975, Bubbling Under Chart #108. They returned to The Rocket Record Company for more 45 RPM charted songs in 1975 with producer Bernie Taupin, later switching to Arista Records in 1976. Yet another name change back to ''Hudson'' came in 1980 on Elektra Records. (The "Hudsons" which recorded for Columbia in 1983 is not the same group.) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hudson Brothers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
