Is there anybody who can fill me in about the fourtones. Did they ever make a recording? Somewhere back in the mid 80's I got a cassette with four tracks on it. "learn how to twist", "crying in the rain", a break jingle and a song phonetically "whimaway", sounding like the lion sleeps to night of pata pata from Myriam makeba. I'M almost certain that u recognize the voices of Graham and Allan.....
Who knows more ?

If that's the fourtones then you have a real rariety there Do you know if the tracks on the cassette came from a reel to reel tape If the sound quality is poor, it could be a live recording. BUT if the quality of sound is up to studio standard, I doubt if it would be them. I've never read of the Alan and Graham even making a demo recording. They're first session as far as I know was with the hollies.

I believe that the cassette comes from an acetate. |

I've heard that tape too.
The songs are definitely Allan and Graham, and the sound quality DEFINITELY leaves something to be desired. |

Ditto to what SpartyScott says. But worth it for the historical significance.
While the info I got when I received these tracks is that were recorded in the fall of 1960, an analysis of the songs used makes the spring of '62 more likely. |
