I used to see Cliff Bennett & The Rebel Rousers at Burtons club, Uxbridge, in the early 1960's, they were a very under-rated group - Cliff had a great voice. Around the same time other regulars at Burtons were Brian Poole & The Tremeloes and Tony Rivers & The Castaways, not a patch on Cliff and the boys!

Can't agree with "The Villan" (his posting 31st March) about Marty Wilde. He said that he preferred Marty's cover versions to the original American records - I thought the exact opposite, Marty was a Brit "trying" to be a yank and unfortunately not doing it well. It was pity his management put him on this path instead of finding some decent original material for him, they did him no favours!
