The Mark V

There was a considerable resistance in London to signing any act from Scotland in the early 1960's and so to publicise the plight of Scottish Bands and their own name in particular, 'The Mark V' marched from Edinburgh to London by way of a demonstration in the manner of the Jarrow Marchers. By the time they reached Market Harborough, Fontana were convinced and signed them but the resulting single 'Baby What's Wrong'/'Tango' Fontana TF 513 (1964) did little to change anything.

Incidentally, 'The Mark V' have sometimes been confused with 'The Mark Four' who later became 'The Creation'. In fact both sides of the afore-mentioned single were mistakenly included on a compilation album 'The Mark Four / The Creation (Eva 12005)
