Ah, the Tremeloes. Beneficiaries of arguably the worst ever commercial decision taken in the history of the entertainment industry. In January 1962, Decca records had two bands in their studio for auditions. The producer had only been given enough money to sign one however. He chose the Tremeloes. Ironically, Decca then spent more money on a lavish lunch to placate the manager of the unsuccessful band - a Mr Brian Epstein of Liverpool - than it would have cost them to sign both bands.
A bit of light relief ahead of another day of fretting over disguised owner investment and audited accounts......
Yes, but who was the other band?
