Cryin Shames Please Stay. These are the boys who worked so hard as the Bumblies and took all the hard knocks for 4 years to get the Liverpool band known nationally.
Some of them were cheated during the last few months of the bands existence by a record producer who was a self engrossed megalomaniac.

The name was changed at the advice of DECCA records.
Personnel changes were unexplained.

Royalties were also left unexplained.
The band have been cheated even now.
The biopic of producer Joe Meeks life used a recording of Please Stay by Duffy for the film.
Imagine a bio of Picasso using someone else's paintings.
This re working of Please stay is by the "Future Farmers." A Dutch band.
Haunting!

Anyway.... this record was used a lot as the last (slow) tune at many discos in the West coast of scotland in the 60's. Havent heard it since then. A classic.

Ringo Starr was a better drummer than Pete Best. Ringo was fulfilling engagements with Rory Storm and the Hurricanes before he made the move to the Beatles. Despite what Pete says he just was not the right drummer to take the Beatles where they were going.
