Miles, Barry (2001). The Beatles Diary Volume 1: The Beatles Years. London: Omnibus Press. ISBN 0-7119-8308-9. Manfred Mann’s road manager Billy held forth with lurid tales of the Carrousel Club in Copenhagen, where personal manager, Bernard Lee, they had just played, and Cliff’s listened tolerantly by his side. The unique box-set, released on May 29, 2020, contains exclusive footage of The Beatles' and support act Cliff Bennett & the Rebel Rousers' performance at the Circus-Krone-Bau, Munich on the 24th June 1966.

Winn, John C. (2009). That Magic Feeling: The Beatles' Recorded Legacy, Volume Two, 1966–1970. Potter/TenSpeed/Harmony. p.38. ISBN 9780307452405. Also from the first LP and a typical example of the Bennett/RR approach as applied to a song from Curtis Mayfield, one of the more idiosyncratic song writers. Ref. the Viscounts I’ll Never Get Over You, I did mention it in my Kidd Topper but without any accompanying adjectives. Perhaps I should have listened harder. Coplan, Chris (20 September 2009). "Album Review: The Beatles – Revolver [Remastered]". Consequence of Sound . Retrieved 12 December 2018. His band, the Rebel Rousers, were the best band operating in the UK in the R&B sector in the mid to late sixties. They were at least on a par with Georgie Fame’s Blue Flames but I would maintain were capable of greater variation.

Albums, EPs & singles which Cliff Bennett And The Rebel Rousers contributed to

Single and one that took me to the Garnet Mimms original rather than the other way round. One of Cliff’s gentler efforts.

I like most of Adam Faith’s output, despite the overt BH affectation but I would not place most of his repertoire in the upper tier of Buddy imitations, of which so many originated in the land who celebrated and appreciated him most, Great Britain. Ref. Mike Berry, I think I saw him once, down the bill a bit to Jerry Lee somewhere in South London, in a cinema type venue, the distinguishing feature of which was fruit machines along the sides near the stage.

But Cliff Bennett and the Rebel Rousers bequeathed to the world a simply glorious body of music. That is all that matters. Just listen and put any prejudices along the lines of “can blue men sing the whites” to one side.
