Behind The Scenes : Telstar / Bell Telephone Company – 1962

Here we are just around the corner from the 60th anniversary of this – we’ve got satellite internet and phones and all kinds of stuff – but this? It was a way cool deal when this happened . . .

And The Tornadoes ( spelled with the “E” here in the US – without it in the UK ) made it to #1 in the UK and #1 here in the US with this hit . . .

You could even say they were the #1 group of the “British Music Invasion” of the 60’s – they were after all the first British group with a #1 hit here in the US . . .
