The British Are Coming!!: The Beatles Lead the First Wave of the British Invasion

From the same book as last post. //// The Beatles were just the "Shock Band" of what was coming from Britain. In January 1964, the only U.K. band on the charts was a female duo from London called the Caravelles with ""You Don't Have to be a Baby to Cry" at #19. //// There were no U.K. groups in FEBRUARY. However, by March: #18 "Glad All Over" by the Dave Clark Five and #20 "I Only Want to Be With You" by Dusty Springfield. //// APRIL: #5 "Glad All Over," #13 "Needles and Pins" by the Searchers and #15 "Bits and Pieces" by the Dave Clark Five. //// MAY: #3 "Bits and Pieces," #15 "Little Children" by Billy J. Kramer & the Dakotas and #18 "A World Without Love" by Peter and Gordon (written by Paul McCartney). //// By JUNE: #2 "A World Without Love," #9 "Little Children," #13 "Don't Let the Sun Catch You Crying" by Gerry & the Pacemakers and #18 "Bad to Me" by Billy J. Kramer & the Dalotas. //// So, the Beatles Had Definitely Opened the Door. --RoadDog
