The Rock 'N Rollers. Embassy Group directed by Ken Jones, British conductor, arranger, composer, producer and pianist (1927-1988). He worked as a studio arranger for Norrie Paramor , The Zombies, Jonathan King, among others. Between 1956 and 1958 The Rock 'N Rollers released two 78rpm singles and one EP. The singles were credited to:

Ken Jones & His Rock'n'Rollers and

Shorty Mitchell w. The Ken Jones Rock'n Rollers.

The EP, three tracks each side was entitled Rock 'N Roll Time and featured Hal Munro (Neville Taylor – see BR 80) as the lead singer.

The Tunettes. Embassy vocal group. The Group name, same as names of other Embassy groups did not imply any consistent membership and were generally made up of any musicians who were available on the particular recording day. In 1957 Embassy released six 78rpm singles credited to The Tunettes, presumably not recorded by the same group in one recording session – detailed data are not available.

Andee Silver. Born Andrea Silverstein in 1951, in London. Back in the early 1960s much coverage was given to youthful girl singers like 14 years old Helen Shapiro or 15 years old Lulu. In 1964, at the age of 13, Andee Silver recorded her first two singles, on His Master's Voice. In 1966 she recorded the third single, on Fontana.

In 1968 she was a mere 17 when embarking on a successful Italian recording career (Joker Hi-Fi Records), which embraced L'Amore Dice “Ciao", the theme song of the raunchy x-rated movie La Matriarca and an association with Decca Records that highlighted what a fine singer she was.

In the late 1960s and early 1970s she released few more singles and two albums for Joker/Decca. (Discogs)
