There were, of course, many other hit recordings that feature not only Mike's vocals, but also his equally distinctive 12-string jangly guitar sound that became such a feature of The Searchers' recordings.

With over 50 years of success in the business he is still touring worldwide also performing The Searchers' million selling hits such as Sugar and Spice, Sweets For My Sweet, Don’t Throw Your Love Away, When You Walk In The Room.

Chris Farlowe, originally Chris Farlowe and The Thunderbirds, started out in the late 50s. His hits include classics like Out Of Time, Let The Heartaches Begin, Reach Out I’ll Be There and Handbags and Glad Rags, which was also released by Rod Stewart as a single.

Herman’s Hermits throughout the mid 60s music scene proved to be a dominating force worldwide. From 1964 the band chalked up over 23 top 20 singles, 10 hit albums and three major movies. To date they have sold 75 million records worldwide.
