Dave Sampson

David John 'Dave' Sampson (born 9 January 1941, Uttoxeter, Staffordshire, England)^[1] had a UK hit single in May 1960 with his backing band, The Hunters, with "Sweet Dreams", which peaked at number 29 on the UK Singles Chart.^[2] "Sweet Dreams" was released on the Columbia Records label, and spent six weeks in the chart.^[2] His lack of subsequent chart presence leaves him listed as a one-hit wonder.

His first ever recording was a four tune EP demo with Steve Laine, later of the Liverpool Five. Both persons were the singers with a band that was never named.
