The Dennisons where another very popular group who many thought would make it to the top, they made such an impact at The Cavern, DJ Bob Wooler said “they’ve created the biggest impression on Merseyside since The Beatles”. Record companies heard they were drawing crowds in Liverpool like the Beatles used to do and Decca rushed up to sign them, releasing their debut record ’Come On Be My Girl’ in July 1963, a number they had written themselves. This was followed up with their version of the Rufus Thomas song ‘Walkin’ The Dog’, the ‘B’ side, ‘You Don’t Know What Love Is’ was written for them by Ben E King while they were touring with him, the record reached No. 36 in the charts. Their final single, ’Nobody Like My Babe’ , was released in November 1964 and although it was very commercial, it didn’t enter the charts.
