Johnny Gentle - Wendy 1959 HQ

Johnny Gentle - Wendy 1959 HQ (AKA Darren Young) Johnny Gentle is the stage name of John Askew (born 8 December 1936). He was a British pop singer who is now best remembered for having briefly toured Scotland with the Silver Beetles – later known as the Beatles – as his backing group in 1960. Gentle released two singles on Philips in 1959 – the self-penned “Wendy“, followed by “Milk From The Coconut“ – but they did not make the charts, and nor did an EP, The Gentle Touch, combining the two singles.
