Bobbie Clarke - Reunion With Taylor

Reunion With Taylor

Vince dressed up for the occasion in his black leather gear and added a chain around his neck with a Joan of Arc medallion. He gave such an extraordinary performance at the sound check that even the band was amazed, and the organizers decided to put Vince Taylor and his Playboys at the top of the Bill for both shows. As a result of Vince's exciting performance and his interaction with the band at those two shows Eddie Barclay signed the group to a six-year record deal on the Barclay label, with Bobbie Woodman changing his name to Bobbie Clarke.

For the next two years, Bobbie Clarke with his band, once again called Vince Taylor and his Playboys (Vince Taylor et ses PlayBoys) toured Europe including The French Riviera, Brussels, Belgium, Spain, and The Netherlands in between recording several LP albums and numerous 45 RPM singles, at Barclay Studios in Paris, such as “Sweet Little Sixteen”, “C’mon Everybody”, “Twenty Flight Rock”, “Love Me”, “Long Tall Sally”, “So Glad You’re Mine”, “Baby Let's Play House”, “Lovin Up A Storm” to name a few.
