[6] In 1963, the year in which popular music was transformed by the rise of The Beatles, Davis left Decca records owing to financial disagreements.
In September of that year she suffered a broken jaw when a chauffeur-driven limousine[7] in which she and Jet Harris, former bass guitarist of the Shadows, were returning from a concert in Worcester,[8] crashed in the West Midlands.
[citation needed] In an interview included in the liner notes of the 2007 compilation CD Whatcha Gonna Do?
(RPM 326), Davis acknowledged the scandal, but also placed blame for the "lost momentum" on being unable to record for four months due to having her jaw wired shut after the accident.
They released three singles including "Swingin' Tight", which while popular did not make the chart and the short lived pairing was dissolved.
Davis' final chart entry was a Northern soul version of Jon Hendricks' "I Want You to Be My Baby", originally recorded by Louis Jordan in 1952, which reached number 33 in October 1968,[6] although sales were affected by an industrial dispute at the manufacturing plant.
