The Tremeloes were a British pop group from Dagenham, Essex. They had formed in 1958, and first had hits as Brian Poole And The Tremeloes; (Do You Love Me?, I Can Dance, (1963), etc.). It is well known that they had been given a record contract by Decca Records while The Beatles had been rejected as unsuitable by the label's executives. A couple of years after Brian Poole left the group they came into their own with regular hits and appearances on BBC's Top Of The Pops TV show. These songs were popular with younger music fans and parents rather than rock music fans.
They include: Cat Stevens's Here Comes My Baby, Suddenly You Love Me, Hello World and My Little Lady. Their Me And My Life was a hit in 1974 but they had caused themselves problems by a quote that insulted some of their buying public and had no hits after that. It is easy to buy their material on album still and they quite often play concerts and are part of the pop revival shows that tour the UK.
