On January 1, 1962, the Beatles played 15 songs on the Decca studios in London. Finally the group is rejected by the company, because there was another group competing with them to be booked, and Decca could only keep one, the Beatles were rejected, the group that elected were ... Brian Poole & The Tremeloes.
This may have barely made a dent in the U.S. charts but it was BIG in Detroit/ Windsor area, thanks mostly to CKLW which gave it good airplay three years before their programming fell prey to that dreadful Drake MMM formula. What a song.
Ah, Monument Records ... the great Roy Orbison's label. This tune is just beautiful - sad it barely made it into the US charts (#97, if memory serves).
My dad played in a band all his life and this was his favourite song. He played it as a mix with I'm just a country boy and said it was his life in a song. He dedicated it to my Mum. I always cry when I hear this. It is such a lovely song. Thank you
GREAT SONG BY BRIAN. i REMEMBER A YEAR OR TWO AGO THE VIDEO OF BRIAN AND THE TREMELOES SINGING THIS HIT OF 1964 ON YOUTUBE. DOES ANYONE REMEMBER IT? IS IT POSSIBLE FOR "SOMEONE" TO BRING IT BACK?
this is one of their greatest songs. takes ya back to the good old 60,s!

Not that correct. There was room, still, for The Beatles in Decca. They could keep more than one. As they, indeed, did.

Songs, like this one from the 60's, had a true Romantic feeling about them. Shame today's music, DOESN'T come up to scratch!!!!
