Can it be The Phantoms from England with Ken Levy on the guitar and Robin Baily on drums ? They were much here in Sweden at that time. Robin was asked to do some jigs with The Beatles when Ringo were sick or something. Later Ken and Robin moved to Sweden where they played in different groups ! This is what I know ot The Phantoms !

According to "Time Warp Records" the phantoms were a Melbourne instrumental (later vocal) band formed in 1960. Besides becoming very popular in their own right, they were in constant demand by many promoters to appear at their venues and also back many of the solo artists of the era, including Johnny O'Keefe. In May 1964 they were selected as one of the supporting acts for the Beatles tour of Australia. They opened each show with two songs, the A&B sides of their latest W&G single, 'Hava Nagila' & 'Round and Round'. They also supported Johnny Chester & Johnny Devlin on the tour. In 1965 they drafted Mike Brady (The Hearsemen) into the group to replace guitarist Dave Lincoln who'd been badly injured in a car accident. The band started playing a more contempary beat style of music. That was vitually the end of the Phantoms as they were originally known (Shadows style instumentals) and soon they enlisted The Saxons drummer Danny Finley and from there, MPD Ltd. was born. Another band named "The Phantoms" were from Berlin in Germany. They played in the beat area of the sixties mainly in West Berlin until the end of the decade. They were a permanent act for many years in Berlin's well known location Riverboat. They were part of the so called berlin scene and some few titles of them can be found on the bear family record "Die Berlin Szene" as part of the "Smash...! Boom...! Bang...!" series. Since both, Merlbourne's and Berlin's Phantoms, played a similar guitar style it is hard to say who is who. I would tend to Melbourne. Maybe the information above helps you to dig deeper into it to find out more, if you like.

(Did you know that Richi Blackmore played guitar on "Heinz-Just like eddie" and jeff beck and jimmy paige was studio musicans in the early 60's)

Iron_Horse, have a look on this page http://www.timewarp.com.au/ There'll you find the Australian Phantom CD. After more googling I found that link: http://koti.mbnet.fi/wdd/kenlevy.htm There you can read: "The Phantoms was formed in the early 1960s as a skiffle-group called the Scramblers by three Cambridge-lads Kenneth 'Ken Levy' Leverington, Cliff Gentle and Dave Cooke. The drummer Robin Bailey was found from another local band the Red Caps, and the line-up was completed when the vocalist Johnny Culham joined them. Although the Phantoms was basicly an instrumental-group, strongly influenced by the Shadows, they also did some vocal-numbers. For some reason, the Phantoms released only one single in their homeland (and probably one mysterious promotional-only LP). However in Scandinavia, the Cupol label (subsidiary of Palette Records) got intrested of the band, and asked them to back-up the Norwegian rock'n'roll hero Per-Elvis (Granberg) for his 14-days tour in Norway in 1963. Culham didn't participate, and soon after he had left the group for good, Levy replaced him as a lead vocalist and the groups' front man. At a time, their style changed more and more towards to straight rock'n'roll and r'n'b, recording for instance songs like "Honey Don't", "Baby Let's Play House", "Shakin' All Over", "Move It" etc. The Phantoms toured at least once in Finland, and several times in Sweden, where they finally settled down for years, enjoying of quite fruitful success at the local chart-lists." Looking at the titles of the different phantoms the repoirtoir of your ARC CD still let me tend to Australia. But I am still struggling. And finally here is another link related to Ken Levy & The Phantoms playing with the Beatles. http://home.swipnet.se/~w-29168/Beattour1963.htm Pobably you have already seen it. Concerning your question in brackets, yes I knew.

Thanks for the links someone2008! I had missed the Australian Phantom band! Still i don't know what band is right,like you say it's tends to Australia. But Ken Levy's mysterious promotional-only LP is very interesting too,they first lp was on Arc! and it can be studio musicans too. So this mystery continue!!! Thanks again both for your diggings :)

Ah right, must admit it seemed a bit strange with the Scandinavian bit but the instrumental strongly influenced by The Shadows did.... will have another dig around, cheers Iron_Horse
