PAUL & RITCHIE & THE CRYIN’ SHAMES EP

Description

Out of the BUMBLIES came the Merseybeat group the CRYIN’ SHAMES and a hit record PLEASE STAY which reached #26 in the UK charts in March 1966. This was the group that recorded the tracks on side two for French TV a couple of months later, but broke up in the summer of the same year. Paul and Ritchie got a new group together and recorded just one single, SEPTEMBER IN THE RAIN for Decca as PAUL & RITCHIE & THE CRYIN’ SHAMES. This lineup went into the BBC studios in September 1966 to cut the tracks on Side One. And here they are – for the first time in fifty years!
