1959 Marty Wilde Marries Joyce Baker |
Marty Wilde married Joyce Baker on this day. Wilde was, for a while, the UK’s premier teen idol before he lost this mantle to Cliff Richard.
His marriage to Joyce Baker, who was a singer with the Venom Girls, was considered a bad career move at the time and resulted in him discarding Rock ‘n’ Roll for Frank Sinatra type ballads. His marriage was also blamed for his fall from grace with his teenage fans, who viewed him as unavailable. |
