When:

Short story:

Jet Harris and Tony Meehan, a UK instrumental duo formed by ex-members of The Shadows, record Scarlett O'Hara in London, England, UK, Europe.

Full article:

Tony Meehan : When we got round to recording Scarlett O’Hara and Applejack, Jet was very sick by that time, couldn’t learn the numbers and was nowhere to be found. Sometimes he would turn up and sometimes he didn’t. You didn’t know how you would find him and my nerves were ragged. A session musician, Joe Moretti, played on those records, but Decca put Jet’s name on it to sell them.
