From Failure to Success: The History of 'Nothing But A Heartache' by The Flirtations

#theflirtations #soulmusic #nothingbutaheartache #tobytwirl #1960smusic #petebest This is the untold story of the 1960s soul classic 'Nothing But A Heartache' by The Flirtations. After initial failures, two rock n roll musicians from Northern England and an R'n'B group from South Carolina come together to create a huge hit record. But is their most famous song actually taken from an obscure 7" single released four months earlier? Wayne Bickerton and Tony Waddington originally played in a band with former member of The Beatles, Pete Best but failed to hit big during the 1960s 'British Invasion' of rock bands in America. At the same time, soul music group The Gypsies were struggling to make their mark at home and moved to the UK to capitalise on the flourishing Northern Soul movement which embraced their records. After Bickerton snd Waddington returned to London, they began writing for bands on the Decca record label, including a single for Toby Twirl called Romeo & Juliet. Did this seed the idea for what would become The Flirtations biggest hit? Subscribe for more interesting stories about music...
