This UK-based beat group, consisting of Brian Poole, Alan Blakely, Len 'Chip' Hawkes, Dave Munden and Rick West, formed in 1958 and first entered the UK Top 40 charts at #4 with a version of "Twist and Shout", originally sung by The Beatles in 1963.
Later that year, they topped the charts with a cover of The Contours' USA million-seller "Do You Love Me".
Before Poole’s departure a few years later, the band did several cover versions of artists including Roy Orbison with “Candy Man” and The Crickets with “Someone Someone” which made it to #2 in the UK Top 40 charts.
From 1967 onwards, they had an even more successful run with Cat Stevens' "Here Comes My Baby"; "Suddenly You Love Me", "Hello World", and "My Little Lady", as well as topping the charts with a Four Seasons track, "Silence is Golden". Both this last single and "Here Comes My Baby" also entered the Top 20 of the U.S. Billboard Hot 100.
Their regular hits were accompanied by frequent appearances on BBC's Top of the Pops television program. This DVD is a collection of 20 of the band’s greatest hits, which shows them performing at various gigs and concerts. Extras feature interviews, clips and various TV shows.
Also included is chart information for each track, as well as the artists they cover.
