Clark
Five
Все началось с того момента, когда Дэйв Кларк (р. 15 декабря 1942) играл в группе сопровождения певца Стэна Саксона. Компанию ему тогда составляли Крис Веллс и Мик Райан. Эти двое в скором времени куда-то исчезли, и тогда Кларк решил основать свою собственную команду. Причем делалось это для того чтобы собрать денежки для футбольного клуба "Tottenham Hotspurs". Таким образом в январе 1962 года на свет появились "Dave Clark five", куда кроме самого Кларка вошли Майк Смит (р. 6 декабря 1943), Деннис Пэйтон (р. 8 августа 1943), Рик Хаксли (р. 5 августа 1944) и Ленни Дэвидсон (р. 10 мая 1944). Первая их попытка записать сингл окончилась неудачей. Дело в том, что они выпустили "Do You Love me" (кавер "Contours") одновременно с "Brian Poole and the Tremeloes".
У последних эта вещь вышла получше, а "Dave Clark five" остались ни при чем. Зато с этого момента музыканты решили впредь исполнять только свои вещи. Менеджерские и продюсерские обязанности Дэйв Кларк взял полностью на себя.
Такой подход дал неплохие результаты и изданная в конце 1963 года композиция Кларка-Смита "Glad All Over" оказалась на верхушке британских чартов, сместив оттуда битловскую "I Want To Hold Your Hand". Свержение " Beatles" с пьедестала принесло группе многочисленные восторженные отклики в прессе. "Dave Clark five" не преминули этим воспользоваться и выбросили на рынок "Bits and Pieces", занявший вторую строчку чартов. Последующие несколько лет такого успеха в Англии у них уже не было, за исключением "Catch Us If You Can", попавшей в 1965 году в лучшую английскую десятку. Совершенно иным образом дело обстояло в Штатах. Именно "Dave Clark Five" первыми совершили "наезд" на Америку, положив начало "британскому вторжению".
Восемьнадцать раз группа появлялась на шоу Эда Салливана, провела шесть аншлаговых американских туров, причем их концерты открывали Литл Ричард, Джерри Ли Льюис, Чак Берри, Рой Орбисон, Нил Даймонд и другие не менее известные личности. За два года пятнадцать песен "DC5" попадали в лучшую штатовскую двадцатку.
Из других заслуг можно назвать 12 аншлаговых концертов, которые группа отыграла в течение трех дней в знаменитом "Carnegie Hall". СамымипопулярнымиеекомпозициямивАмерикебылитакиевещикак "Can't You See That She's Mine", "Because", "I Like It Like That" и "Over and Over". Однако ажиотаж вокруг "Dave Clark Five" продолжался всего пару лет, и к концу 60-х их звезда начала закатываться. Все-таки конкурировать с " Beatles" и " Rolling stones" было тяжело и соответствовать духу времени тоже стало трудновато. В 1969-м команда еще смогла выпустить макси-сингл "Good Old Rock 'n' Roll", зацепившийся в чартах, но дальнейшие попытки были бесплодны, и мае 1970-го "Dave Clark Five" были официально распущены.
Однако Кларк был связан десятилетним контрактом с "EMI" открывшимся еще в 1963 году и поэтому ему пришлось продолжить работу. Смит не стал бросать его, и вместе с Эриком Фордом, Аланом Паркером и Маделейном Беллом они под вывеской "Dave Clark and Friends" исполнили свои обязательства перед лейблом.
