The group was created in Tottenham, England, in 1961. They were part of
the "British Invasion" of the 1960s music scene. Their hit songs included
"Glad All Over", "Bits and Pieces", "Over and Over" and "Because".
They were one of the first English groups to tour North America, and
they appeared several times on Toast of the Town (1948). They sold more
than 100 million records and had 17 hit singles, before breaking up in
1970.
