From the mid 1950's and early 1960's America produced some amazing Rock n Roll.
Pre Beatles [ 1963 ] British artists soon were influenced by these great sounds and very soon the British charts were full of great acts like Adam Faith,Marty Wilde,The Shadows,The John Barry Seven.
Until 1963 British Rock n Roll never broke big in America although many Americans thought it was good stuff.The only way the British were to really break America was to produce even better sounds than the Americans and in 1963 they started to do this.
Nevertheless there were some great sounds coming out of Britain just see song no 2 " Don't Knock upon My Door" by Billy Fury," What do you want" by Adam Faith and how about that great Rock n Roll instrumental " Hit and Miss! by the great John Barry Seven as the theme for Juke Box Jury.
