Dave Dee
Hook-laden tunes transformed Salisbury, Wiltshire, England-based quartet Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Titch into one the United Kingdom\'s top pop bands of the mid-1960s. Performing songs by their managers, Ken Howard and Alan Blaikley, the group scored with top ten UK hits as "Hold Tight", "Hideaway, "Bend It", "Save Me", "Okay", "Zabadak!", "Last Night In Soho" and the chart-topper, "Legend Of Xanadu".
Formed as Dave Dee and the Bostons, Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Titch were led by vocalist Dee (born: David Harman), an ex-policeman and had been at the scene of the automobile accident that took the life of American rocker Eddie Cochran and injured Gene Vincent in April 1960. Dee had taken Cochran\'s guitar from the accident and held it until it could be returned to his family. Although they were among the many British bands who honed their skills while performing in Hamburg, Germany, Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Titch were one of the first to tour the United Kingdom with established acts. Shortly after moving to London, in 1965, the group hooked up with Howard and Blaikley.
With the group disbanding in 1969, DAVE DEE recorded a minor hit as a soloist before turning his attention to producing. He briefly reunited with the band in 1974 and the early-1980s, recording a single, "Staying With It" b/w "Sure Thing" in 1983.
