The origins of this group date back to 1961 in Scotland when Campbell and Fairlie met and discovered they shared a mutual love for rock 'n' roll music. After adding bassist Billy Johnson and drummer Tom Frew, they took the name The Gaylords and began playing local Glasgow clubs. Johnson and Frew were replaced by Billy Irving and Raymond Duffy respectively and the group also recruited a front man - Thomas McAleese - who took the name "Dean Ford".
