Anthony Teague. Born Edwin Ardell Teague (January 4, 1940 – June 2, 1989), also known as Scooter Teague, was an American actor and dancer. He appeared as "Big Deal", one of the Jets, in West Side Story (1961). In 1962 Teague recorded his only single, in Decca studios in London. Two teen-pop songs were arranged by Charles Blackwell, British pianist, composer, music director, one of the most in-demand arrangers in England during the 1960s.

The single was released only in the UK,  recorded in London with a group of British musicians and therefore has been classified to Rare British Pop series.

Tony Wilson. Singer, bassist and songwriter, born 8 October 1947 in Trinidad. Founder member of Hot Chocolate. 

Tony Wilson's debut solo recordings had been released in 1964 on Decca single – he composed both songs.

In 1967 he released two singles, on Columbia, arranged and conducted by Del Newman - prolific British conductor, orchestral arranger and music producer.

In 1969 Tony Wilson recorded one single for Bell, at Kingsway Studio, London. It was Hot Chocolate, but they were signed elsewhere and couldn't release this under their own name, so Tony got it as a solo release. (45cat) 

Phil Brady. Born 4 March 1939, Liverpool. Like many adolescents raised in the south of Liverpool, Brady learned about country music from the seamen returning from the USA. Encouraged by Hank Walters’ Black Cat club, he formed his own band, the Ranchers, in 1962, including Frank Peters on steel guitar, and they built a reputation in the north-west despite the fierce competition from beat music. They were featured on Decca’s 1965 album, Liverpool Goes Country, and Brady recorded the first single (‘An American Sailor At The Cavern’) for the Cavern Club’s own label. Because the Cavern went into liquidation, most copies went to the official receiver.

Phil Brady & The Ranchers

became nationally popular through the BBC programme Country Meets Folk. He went to Nashville in 1968, played Grand Ole Opry, and recorded Songs Of Nashville on his return. They toured the UK with Buck Owens and Slim Whitman, and their instrumental, A Little Bit Country, was recorded at Joe Brown’s studio with Brown on fiddle. The tear-jerking ‘Little Rosa’ is his most requested number, and other popular singles include ‘The Exeter Bypass’ and ‘Let The Whole World Sing It With Me’. Brady now works solo.

Morris & Mitch. Maurice Sellar, Mitch Revely. The first UK act to parody 'Pop music' for Decca Records - in 1957 and 1958 they released three singles and one EP.

Mo & Steve. Obscure British duo, Morris Sperling & ???. In 1966 they released one single, with orchestra directed by Johnny Harris, conductor and co-arranger at Pye Records. The A-side song, beautiful rock ballad, was  composed by Ray Davies.


She Trinity. Canadian/British pop group of the 1960s. The band was assembled as an all-female group who played their own instruments, a rarity in the period. The original members, Robyn Yorke, Shelley Gillespie and Sue Kirby, were Canadians who came to England around 1965. They were joined by Pauline Moran on bass and Marion "Rusty" Hill on keyboards. Eileen Woodman joined in 1967 when Rusty left, by which time Shelley and Sue had already left. The final 1967 line-up consisted of Robyn Yorke and Janet Baily on drums, Pauline Moran on bass guitar, Eileen Woodman on keyboards, Barbara Thompson on saxophone and Beryl Marsden on vocals. The final line-up was Eileen, Robyn, Pauline and a Swedish guitarist named Inger Jonnsson. The band dissolved in 1970/71.

Between 1966 and 1969 they released six singles, five on Columbia/CBS, the last on President.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_She_Trinity


The Sherwoods. British early 1960s beat group from Solihull, West Midlands:

      ·         Malcolm Drew - lead vocal, rhythm guitar
      ·         Paul Russell - drums
      ·         Roy Silvester - keyboard (left in 1964)
·         Peter Weaving - lead guitar, vocal
·         Terry Russell - bass guitar, vocal
·         Alan George (Smith) - keyboard, vocal
·         Liz Comber - vocal (joined in 1965) 

Between September 1963 and January 1965, The Sherwoods appeared regularly at Solihull Civic Hall.

In the summer of 1964 they went down to London and recorded some songs of which 'Some Other Time' (composed by Terry Russell) bw/ 'Memories' (composed by Malcolm Drew) was released as a single on the Solar Records label.

n March 1965, the Sherwoods became resident band at the Schleihalle Club resort in the northern German city of Schleswig.

Personal and artistic differences had blighted the group for some time and immediately upon their return to England, lead vocalist Malcolm Drew left the band. He went to Sweden where he joined his brother Roger, in the very popular (in Sweden) folk group ‘The Coachmen’ (see BR47).

http://brumbeat.net/sherwood.htm


The Soul Brothers. British group later known as

The Corduroys (see BR22). This was the duo of

Tony Wilson (left) and

Norman Oliver.

In 1965 and 1966 they released three singles, for different labels (Decca, Parlophone, Mercury). One of them entered the British Chart (#42). They composed all tracks.

In 1966 Shel Talmy had signed them for his Planet label, in the hopes that they would develop into "house songwriters". They placed a few songs, one own single as The Corduroys, before launching separate solo careers (with Oliver changing his name to Oliver Norman). Wilson later founded Hot Chocolate and is probably best known today for co-writing "You Sexy Thing".


Catherine Parr. Obscure British pop singer.  The NME dated August 6th 1965 says the artist's real name is Angela Jones. The piece also says she chose Catherine Parr as her stage name as she "...claims to be a direct descendant'" of Henry Vlll's wife (45cat). Her only single has been released by Decca.


The Riff. Obscure ska-beat band, presumably of Jamaican origins. In 1964 they released one single, on Blue Beat - subsidiary label of Melodisc Records Ltd. set up to record and distribute Jamaican music in the UK.


The Trojans. Obscure rock-band, presumably British. In 1958 they recorded one single, released by Decca (UK and Germany) and by Felsted in the US. Both songs were penned by British composers: James Bennet & John Maitland.


Paul Stewart. Folk singer and guitarist from Yorkshire Dales. Real Name: Christopher John Simpson. Alias under which Chris Simpson released two early folk singles in the '60s.

In 1966, as Paul Stewart, on Philips.

In 1967, as The Paul Stewart Movement, on Decca (see BR34).

In 1969 Chris Simpson formed folk-rock group Magna Carta – they recorded many albums and singles in later years.
