  • My Grandad recently told me he was in Hanburg at this time with some friends, they went to a club and the barman told them there was a group from england playing below and they should go see them. My grandad said they could hear them playing from below but decided not to go down because they were into jazz....years later, they realised who the band was. They would have probably been so happy to meet people from england aswell! At least I can say my grandad was in the same building as them...

  • They did not write A Taste Of Honey. It was written by Bobby Scott and Ric Marlow. It was originally an instrumental track (or recurring theme) written for the 1960 Broadway version of the 1958 British play A Taste of Honey (which was also made into a film with the same name in 1961). Both the original and a cover by Herb Alpert in 1965 earned the song Grammy Awards. A vocal version of the song, first recorded by Lenny Welch, became popular when it was recorded by The Beatles in 1963.
