They run in the same orbit as Duane Eddy, Cliff Richard, Manfred Mann, The Tremeloes and Herman's Hermits, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Miquel Brown, Alan Hawkshaw, The Scorpions, Prljavo Kazalište and Jerry Williams, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation.
