 Cliff Richard - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cliff Richard has scored 14 #1 singles in the UK; more than any other artist with the exception of Elvis Presley and The Beatles.
Cliff gained a recording contract for himself only, leaving the band behind, with EMI in the summer of 1958, where he remained until signing with Decca in 2004.
In the early days Cliff Richard was something of a British equivalent to Elvis Presley.

 Journal of Popular Film and Television: The perpetual busman's holiday: Sir Cliff Richard and British pop musicals
Cliff's films are also a part of the process, marking a hybridization of rock 'n' roll with established modes of entertainment, both in terms of styles of music and in terms of the images.
Cliff sings along to his own records that are played on the jukebox.
It was inspired largely by the startling image of Elvis Presley.(6) According to Cliff, the media decided he was "England's answer to Elvis, and that's what I became.

 Amazon.co.uk: Cliff Richard - the World Tour: Music
This album is a weak album, by the quality we have come to expect from Sir Cliff Richard and fans should not be upset or disheartened if the UK album chart doesn't see this album perform well.
Cliff does a couple of medlies using Elvis tracks and light numbers from the other artists during the 1950s/60s.
It is a weaker album than his smash of 2003 Cliff At Christmas and I think that his new studio album for release later on this year will put him back into the UK top ten and leave this album behind.

 MTV.com - Cliff Richard
Britain's answer to Elvis Presley, Richard (born Harry Webb) dominated the pre-Beatles British pop scene in the late '50s and early '60s.
Richard belatedly cracked the U.S. Top Ten in 1976 with "Devil Woman," and racked up a few other hits ("We Don't Talk Anymore," "Dreaming," "A Little in Love") in a mainstream pop/rock style.
Several of his late-'50s recordings, however, were genuinely exciting Presley-esque rockers -- especially his first hit, "Move It" (1958) -- and gave British teenagers their first taste of genuine homegrown rock & roll talent.

After the recording session, Cliff was signed to EMI's Columbia label; the rest of the group received a session fee.
The song, rapidly promoted to the A-side, was the first British rock-and-roll record, and has been cited as an inspiration by musicians including John Lennon (five days Cliff's senior).

 Cliff Richard : Kinda Latin - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
Bernard Ebbinghouse and company had been providing similar accompaniment for Richard as far back as 1961's Listen to Cliff, and their re-creation of "The Girl From Ipanema" wraps itself around a genuinely excited vocal to create a minor masterpiece.
The logical successor to the Spanish and Italian language albums which he had unleashed over the previous 12 months, Cliff Richard's 11th album eschewed the linguistic gymnastics which marred those collections, and concentrated on the moods alone -- with stunning results.
But one cannot help but admire the same orchestra's plucky assault on "Concrete and Clay" -- so plucky, in fact, that the horn parts seem convinced that they're auditioning for Herb Alpert, while the organ is dreaming of a job with Brian Auger.
