They backed Tommy Roe on a few singles: "I Think I Love You" b/w "Oh So Right" in 1964. Diane From Manchester Square" b/w "Love Me, Love Me" in 1965 "Sheila" b/w "Save your kisses". This next part is an excerpt from "Shingdig Magizine". The Roemans was a very good pop band in the mould of Paul Revere & The Raiders, and were a few years older than many of the other bands on the scene at the time. They released six excellent singles (all on the ABC label) between 1964 and 1966 – Give Me A Chance b/w Your Friend, Misirlou b/w Don’t (1964), Universal Soldier (this just may be the best version of this song done by anybody anywhere!!) b/w Lost Little Girl and Listen To Me b/w You Make Me Feel. Good (all in 1965) and When The Sun Shines In The Mornin’ b/w Love (That’s All I Want) and All The Good Things b/w Pleasing You Pleases.
The Roemans started their career as Lanny and the Impressions in the early Sixties. They were signed by two Florida promotors who also took over management of the band. They soon came to the attention of Felton Jarvis, who signed them for a recording contract. Tommy Roe then heard the band and got them to tour the American midwest with him in September 1964. The Midwestern tour was a huge success, so the Roemans toured the Southeast with Tommy Roe in October and went back to the Midwest in December. To help things along a little, their recording with Tommy Roe, 'Diane From Manchester Square', was released in England on the day of their arrival. They were subsequently invited to stay over an extra week in Britain to do TV Shows on their own and invited to return later in the year for another tour. Throughout the band's career, they released six singles.
Tommy Roe's daughter Danielle just sent me this short clip of Tommy leaning up against his 1968 Camaro! Tommy is doing very well and gives us the thumbs up! 378. 8. This is the 1965 British release which has a different B side than the American and Canadian versions. A- "Diane From Manchester Square", B- "Party Girl" (7", Single, Promo) LABEL-His Master's Voice COUNTRY- UK YEAR- 1965. Tommy Roe. Musician/Band.
Tommy Roe Need Your Love. A song from 1966, the B side on the 45 RPM which has on A side: "Hooray For Hazel" Another nice song from Tommy Roe that comes directly from the original. A song from 1964 that failed to chart the billboard, but still a nice song
LyricsDiane from Manchester Square.
In 1964, Roe recorded a song written by Buzz Cason entitled, "Diane From Manchester Square" about a girl who worked at EMI House, when it was based in London's Manchester Square. Sales of this single in the UK were poor, and it failed to chart . I have so many great memories of the music and of my fans who have supported me through the years. Fifty five years to be exact. Thank you again for your loyal support. I love you all, and may God Bless you. Tommy".
