Emile Ford & The Checkmates singing their big 1960 hit, "Counting Teardrops". Thanks to JacquiHUK for the following information: - Born Emile Sweetman on 16th October 1937 in Castries, St Lucia. He grew up in Nassau and emigrated to Great Britain with the ambition to be an engineer. As an engineer, he developed a special sound system, and with this unique sound, Emile Ford turned singer and he and his group The Checkmates secured a recording contract with Pye records and had several hit records, including the No.1 hit "What Do You Want To Make Those Eyes At Me For?" produced by Joe Meek. In the late 60's, Emile moved to Scandinavia but still continued to market his own designed sound systems in the UK and was involved with producing other artists. During the 90's he moved to California where he still sells his sound equipment.. + Informações
