The origianal caption for this photo at the time of its March 4, 1964 publication in the New York City press read: “The Dave Clark Five, the latest British rock’n’rollers to visit these shores, demonstrate their joy at the spring-like weather in Central Park in this photograph. The five, who have recently leaped past The Beatles in popularity in their homeland, appear on the Ed Sullivan television show on March 8. The Beatles recently scored stateside triumphs on the show. Left to right are Rick Huxley, Denis Payton, Dave Clark, Lenny Davidson and Mike Smith.” Bettmann / Contributor / Bettmann / Getty Images.
