Have you got a reliable reference for that? Can't find anything.

The Shadows did their own version not long after the original, but everything points to it being Alan Caddy. Besides, there's a good chance Hank Marvin would've been under contract, and therefore not available.

Got that info years ago.
Source said HM had to keep it quiet and got the idea to do their own version as a result. Could be a complete load of you know what and someone was winding me up. Probably was Alan Caddy.
