I agree that Billy Fury and Joe Brown were talented. I mentioned the other artists (Terry Dene, Wee Willie Harris, etc.) as evidence that Cliff's "Move It" was not the first R&R record in the UK. But I accept it was better than most of what preceded it here, and a classic track. The likes of Dene and Harris didn't have much success anyway and soon disappeared. Tommy Steele was an exception but he quickly moved away from Rock & roll and became the proverbial "all round entertainer" (lampooned as "Fred Iron" on the Peter Sellers record), moving into musicals and movies.

Sadly Billy Fury died relatively young, but Joe Brown is still doing occasional gigs.

Interestingly, many people assume the guitarist on "Move It" was Hank Marvin, but it was a session guitarist Ernie Shears who played on the record.
