Back in 1961 and ’62, Eden Kane and Doug Sheldon were both Decca Records recording artists, during which period each enjoyed his biggest record successes. However, they were diametrically different performers; Eden - known as “the guy with the growl in his voice” - was first and foremost a singer, who would one day also turn his hand to acting, while Doug was an actor whose brief singing career was an opportunist endeavour, driven by his good looks and cool moody image. Eden Kane registered with the chart-topping Well I Ask You, and followed up with Get Lost, Forget Me Not and I Don’t Know Why. Doug charted with covers of three US hits, Runaround Sue, Your Ma Said You Cried In Your Sleep Last Night and I Saw Linda Yesterday. This unique compilation anthologises their recorded output during 1961 and '62, and also includes Eden’s debut 45rpm for Pye Records in late 1960.
