More on Geoff Turton
Description from Wikipedia:
Geoff Turton (born Geoffrey Turton, 11 March 1944, Birmingham), who also recorded under the name Jefferson, was a British singer. His musical career began as the falsettist lead singer, and rhythm guitarist of The Rockin' Berries in 1961, who scored a number of minor hits in the UK and Europe. The group was best known for its covers, and Turton did much of the searching and decision-work for what was to be sung.
When the group broke up in 1968, Turton tried to start up a solo career, releasing a single, "Don't You Believe It", on Piccadilly Records. It flopped, and Piccadilly head John Schroeder suggested that Turton change his name to Jefferson. The single "Montage" failed to chart, but its follow-up, "The Colour of My Love", was a hit in Britain, and an LP was put out following its success. A third single, "Baby Take Me in Your Arms", was not a hit in Britain, but cracked the Top 40 in America, peaking at #23 and justifying the release of a Stateside LP as well. At the time of this single's success, Turton was hurt in a car crash, and so he did not make any live appearances. After a six-month hospital stay, Turton had a second record which was never released by his label and a career on hiatus in Britain; he began touring America, where he was still able to get gigs based on the success of "Baby Take Me in Your Arms". He then contracted with Polygram Records, who released another album and a single, "I Love You This Much" (later a hit in Europe for Mouth & MacNeal).
