Teen heartthrob Adam Faith played Cardiff’s Gaumont Theatre.
Also on the bill were John Barry Seven, Johnny Worth, The Honeys, and Johnny Le Roy.
Terence Nelhams Wright, better known as Adam Faith, was an English teen idol, singer, actor and was one of the most charted acts of the 1960s.
Faith managed to lodge twenty consecutive single releases on the UK Singles Chart, starting with "What Do You Want?" in November 1959 and culminating with "I Love Being in Love With You" in mid-1964; this was quite a feat for a British artist of Faith's era.
During the 1970s, Faith went into music management, managing Leo Sayer among others.
Faith negotiated an advance for his own comeback album with Warner Bros. Records, using half of it to record the album I Survive(which failed to chart) and the other half to finance Sayer.
Faith and his former drummer David Courtney co-produced Sayer's initial hits "The Show Must Go On" and "One Man Band". Sayer later said in an interview with British newspaper The Daily Telegraph that "[Faith] handled everything for me, but although he was a very good mentor, he was less trustworthy with my money. In the end, Adam Faith made more out of Leo Sayer than I did."
