3 unusual facts about The Clark Brothers


The Clark Brothers

The Clark Brothers gave their first British performance for King George VI and became favourites in working men's clubs.

They wrote hits for Max Bygraves and appeared at the London Palladium; and they opened a "University of Showbusiness" in London, where Cliff Richard and Bonnie Langford were among their pupils.

Frank Sinatra told them to move to Britain after the war, which probably saved their careers.
