When:
Short story:
The Crickets enter the UK singles chart with My Little Girl, which will peak at No17.Full article:
Sonny Curtis (guitarist, The Crickets] : My Little Girl was a song I had written which was probably more in the old Crickets style than much of what we had recorded since 1960. What happened is that Tommy Roe had just had this massive hit, Sheila, which had a Peggy Sue feel to it, and was a very good song indeed, and we were listening to this and saying, 'Hmm - that's our old sound and look how well he's doing!' So I came up with My Little Girl, which took us back to our roots as it were.
