My favorite English Invasion groups back then were the Animals and the Rolling Stones, but I also liked the Dave Clark Five who were, briefly, rivals to the Beatles:

Not 43rd--that would be Sherman Blvd.

Beihoff's was on 53rd, IIRC.

They moved--first to an industrial park/warehouse/office location on 123rd/Feerick, then to 115th/North.

Now they are history. The remnant was acquired by White House of Music.

It's all Bush's fault.
