The current single by Tommy Roe was the followup to his #1 hit “Dizzy.” In March 1963, he and Chris Montez were booked to headline a British concert tour. The opening act was a curious little band from Liverpool called the Beatles, who had just recorded “From Me To You.” When crowds went wild during the first gig, Tommy and Chris figured they better let those guys close the shows. The Fab Four showed their appreciation in February ‘64 by having Tommy open their first-ever US concert in Washington, DC.
