  11. @ Rich B your most welcome and they also performed the flipside on the same show
  12. This is what I found on the net about her credit to historywebsite.co.uk Jenny Allen (Wren) The name of Jenny Allen first came to local notice in 1964 when she was a mere 15 year-old. She was originally backed by a group called Les Jondors. She signed a recording contract in 1965 and took the name Jenny Wren. She was still a pupil at the then Sir Gilbert Claughton School in Dudley. She apparently got her break as a result of Fontana's A&R man, Jack Baverstock, (so influential with Ambrose Slade) hearing her. She released two records on Fontana, Chasing My Dreams All Over Town and The Merry-Go-Round Is Slowing You Down. She appeared at the Civic with Manfred Mann and Wayne Fontana. Her later backing groups were called the Jackdaws, Outlook and Fashion.
