Albert Edward "Eddie" Calvert (15 March 1922 – 7 August 1978 was an English trumpeter, who enjoyed his greatest success in the 1950s. Between 1953 and 1958, Calvert achieved seven instrumental hits on the UK Singles Chart including two chart-toppers, "Oh, Mein Papa" in 1953 and "Cherry Pink (and Apple Blossom White)" in 1955.

Clarence Patrick O'Connor (1 July 1899 – 11 January 1997), known professionally as Cavan O'Connor, was a British singer of Irish heritage who was most popular in the 1930s and 1940s, when he was billed as "The Singing Vagabond" or "The Vagabond Lover".
 He made his first recordings, as Cavan O'Connor, for the Vocalion label in 1925, including "I'm Only a Strolling Vagabond" from the operetta The Cousin from Nowhere, which became his signature song. Noted for his fine tenor voice, well suited for recording, he appeared on many dance band recordings in the 1920s and 1930s, and used a wide variety of pseudonyms, including Harry Carlton, Terence O'Brien, and Allan O'Sullivan. He recorded frequently for at least 15 record labels over his career, including Decca Records, at one point recording 40 songs in five days. He made over 800 recordings in total, both under his own name and pseudonyms.


The King Brothers were a British pop vocal trio popular in the late 1950s and early 1960s. They are best remembered for their cover versions of "Standing on the Corner" and "A White Sport Coat (And A Pink Carnation)".The group was composed of three brothers who first performed together professionally on the TV show Shop Window in 1952. Initially performing as The King Three, they appeared on the BBC Television early in their career on Six-Five Special, and by 1957 had been named "top vocal group" in the reader's poll of NME. Their first hit on the UK Singles Chart was their cover of "A White Sport Coat", which hit #6 in 1957.They had a string of successful singles through 1961, after which time they continued recording but found their popularity waning.
