From the first time I heard this song, it grabbed hold of me and just wouldn't let go! I almost wore the record out on my player back in '64. It has all of the elements we looked for in "British Invasion" music here in the states: great production, great singer, driving beat, wonderful bass part, good lyrics, and a sense of joy that comes through the whole thing. Can't say enough good things about this one. Seeing the group only makes it better. Very underrated group! Love 'em.

I bought my first set of proper drums from the drummer from the outskirts of Rotherham. He was a lovely chap, married the bass player, but I believe they were separated when I bought them (in early 2000's when I was 14/15/16). He told me about his old band and that he met The Beatles, had McCartney writing songs for them etc. You can recognise his face quite well. I googled them at the time and found this catchy song - occasionally it gets stuck in my head (like today) and I have to listen 5 or 6 times to shift it from my mind. I won them from an eBay auction for a ridiculously low price, he was apprehensive to sell but when he saw my age he was super happy and had nothing but encouragement. 6 months from now, I'll be playing with a quite well known blues band touring Europe (hopefully). What a great memory and what a great chap. Hope he's still around :)

TELL ME WHEN najväčší hit skupiny APPLEJACKS, ktorý bol v UK rebríčku od 5. marca 1964 celkom 13 týždňov a skončil na 7.m. Autormi piesne boli Les Reed nar. 24. Júna 1935 vo Wokingu a Geoff Stephens nar. 1. oktobra 1934 v New Southgate. Druhý hit mala skupina v podobe piesne Like Dreamers Do, ktorá v júni 1964 skončila na 20.m. Jej autor Paul McCartney ju zložil v roku 1957 a skupina ju spievala na konkurze v spoločnosti Decca Records. Applejacks vznikli v roku 1961 v Birminghame ako skufflová skupina pod názvom Crestas. V roku 1963 uzatvorili zmluvu so spoločnosťou Decca Records. Skupina bola známa najmä tým, že na basovej gitare hrala žena Megan Davies nar. 25. marca 1944 v Sheffielde sestra Raya a Dave zo skupiny Kinks. V roku 1965 sa vydala za hráča na bicie Gerry Freemana nar. 5. mája 1943 v Solihull. Skupinu okrem ních tvorili Al Jackson nar. 2+. apríla 1945 v Birminghame spev, Martin Baggott nar 20. oktobra 1947 v Birminghame gitara, Phil Cash nar. 9 . oktobra 1947 v Birminghame gitara a Don Gould nar. 23. marca 1947 v Solihulle orgán. V oktobri 1964 posledný krát uspeli na 23.m. s piesňou Three Little Words ( I Love You ).

Yes,a great, happy sound. The record made it to the states, but in limited markets. I heard it on a San Antonio station while visiting relatives. I picked the 45 up in S.A. and wore it out on my player. It never got air play in Houston, only 200 miles away. This was back in the "payola" days of radio and, unfortunately, most of the U.S. never heard this wonderful song. Glad you got to hear it and like it. Check out their version of the Lennon/McCartney song "Like Dreamers Do". Another winner!

Alan Jackson went on to be a staff trainer for the Prudential in Cambridge and I was one of his pupils in 1984! He was a nice chap and told us tales of his adventures with a mate of his called Roy Wood (of The Move and Wizard fame). And when I met Roy some years later in London, I reminded him of some of the things he got up to with Alan and he had a belly laugh, too!
