I am presently communicating with a guy called Artie Wayne, means nothing probably but he made some records in sixties and produced a number of artists some who made it big, what is interesting though is that he produced a record by a guy called Tim Wilde and that record was Popcorn Double Feature probaly the original version, which I had certainly never heard of, but clearly The Searchers must have been sent it, I intend to ask John when I get chance but as next time I see him is in Liverpool probably not the place as his Family tends to go and last thing he wants to do is discuss trivia as he rightly calls it. Artie does not have a copy of the record regretfully but says he will try and track a copy down to send me as a mp3 hopefully.

We could continue this sequence of songs: Dusty Springfield, The Searchers, The Byrds, The Mojos, Lovin' Spoonful, The Shadows, Ian & Sylvia (or The Searchers again), Brian Poole & The Tremeloes, The Beatles and Elvis Presley. A hint, the songs may not be singles!

yes well done I have just read it but don't think I would have come up with The Loving
Spoonful one.

Course we could add Love Minus Zero - Bob Dylan Half a sixpence Tommy Steele - Quarter to Three Freddie cannon

Yes, right you are Roy and the Shadows' Slaughter On Tenth Avenue and Maroc 7 for example.

And Three Dog Night's One. Or we could make quick work of half of the list with Manfred Mann's 5-4-3-2-1, for example.

1,2,3 (I think that's the name of it) Len Barry. 6 o'clock is a great song
