The Dave Clark Five + Helen Shapiro

The Dave Clark Five (abbreviated as DC5) were an English Beat group in the 1960s, and one of the few that were able to present something of a commercial threat to The Beatles, the dominant group of the period. They were, in fact, the second group of the "British Invasion" (after The Beatles) to have a chart hit in America ("Glad All Over" #6 April 1964). The Dave Clark Five had several more hit songs (see Discography below) in the United States during 1964-67, including "Bits and Pieces" (#4 May 1964), "Cant You See That Shes Mine" (#4 July 1964), "Because" (#3 September 1964), "Catch Us If You Can" (#4 September 1965), "Over And Over" (#1 December 1965), and "You Got What It Takes" (#7 May 1967). The group disbanded in late 1970. On 10 March 2008, the band will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
