this guy had some presence on stage ...coulda been a corpse next to him I wouldn'ta noticed. I can't help but think that so many other artists from back then borrowed greatly from his stage mannerisms.
Never heard of this dude before but found a reference to him on a showbill on You Tube's " Nuggets from the Liverpool Five (Part 1)" where there is some fantastic material by my mother's favorite band.

Better version than Herman and the Hermits (Peter Noone) .... really. Not trashing their version but I love Ian Whitcomb's voice and stage presence.

Does Ian's version pre-date Herman's Hermits version?
