About

It is with considerable disappointment that serious illness and hospitalisation in the USA means that Diamond Dave Somerville is no longer able to participate in the tour. 

His personal management has advised the following:

'As directed by his physician Diamond David Somerville has been hospitalised with a serious medical condition. He is unable to travel and is extremely disappointed that he will not be on the forthcoming Australian tour'.

And Then He Kissed Me! is a unique rock n roll show starring the defining American female vocal group of the sixties – the Crystals. Their Wall of Sound recordings, produced by the legendary Phil Spector, include ‘Then He Kissed Me’, ‘Da Do Ron Ron’, ‘He’s a Rebel’, ‘He’s Sure the Boy I Love’ and many more. Three Crystals’ songs are included in the Rolling Stone magazine list of the 500 greatest songs of all time. The Crystals are headed up by Dee Dee Kenniebrew, who was in the original line up of the Crystals.

The special Australian guest on the And The He Kissed Me! tour is the acclaimed Ray Burgess. With a string of hit records and television appearances to his name it was Ray Burgess who toured with Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder and Gene Pitney. Ray Burgess was frequently a television guest on Graham Kennedy’s In Melbourne Tonight, Brian Henderson’s Bandstand, Midday with Mike Walsh, the Don Lane Show and Young Talent Time as well as performances with Paul Hogan and Bert Newton. 

In response to many requests the Allstars will perform on the And Then He Kissed Me! tour. The Allstars can trace their pedigree back to the late fifties when rock n roll began. They have performed in the best venues in Australia and have shared the stage with Tom Jones, Rick Nelson, Del Shannon, Gene Pitney, the Shadows, Chubby Checker, the Platters, the Coasters, Freddie & the Dreamers, Buddy Knox, Chan Romero, Gerry Marsden, Bobby Rydell, Johnny Preston, Johnny Tillotson and Buddy Holly’s Crickets. There are more than forty video and audio recordings of the Allstars in the National Film and Sound Archive and the Performing Arts Museum. As the legendary DJ Stan Rofe said, “the Allstars are clearly the most authentic and professional rock n roll  group in Australia”.
