They were briefly considered to be the English equivalent of Peter, Paul and Mary, with their common repertoire of Bob Dylan songs, and the original Australian folk group, The Seekers. Early days. The four original members were all Hull University students who formed the group in October 1963. It consisted of Sylvia Tatler (vocals) (born 1 January 1945, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire), Mike Ramsden (guitar and vocals) (born Michael John Ramsden, 21  June 1943, Totnes, Devon), Ivor Aylesbury (guitar and vocals) (born Ivor John Aylesbury, 4 October 1942, Carshalton, Surrey) and Kevin Cunningham (double bass) (born John Kevyn Cunningham, 13 August 1940, Bootle, Liverpool, Lancashire). Their first recording was a flexi disc that was produced in 1964 for the Hull University Rag Week. This disc consisted of 3 tracks, one side featuring "John Henry" and "All My Sorrows" with "Blood Red River" on the other side. They were most at home performing folk-style cover versions of songs, especially Bob Dylan compositions. Following graduation in 1964, they spent the whole summer working  at the Devon Coast Country Club in Paignton, Devon, where they also performed most evenings on stage in the ballroom. Coincidentally, another musician also working there at the same time was Liverpudlian Rod Pont (1942–2000), whose last band (Steve Day and the Drifters) had already played at The Cavern alongside The Beatles and had just split up following a stint at the Top Ten Club in Hamburg during the previous autumn.

Early in 1965, after appearing at the Cavern Club in Liverpool where they performed alongside The Spinners, they were signed by Brian Epstein who appointed Alistair Taylor  as their manager. Their first single in June 1965, "Blood Red River", reached No. 14 on the Wonderful Radio London Fab 40, but failed to make any impression on the UK Singles Chart. However, they followed this up with "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away" a Lennon–McCartney composition, their only chart hit. Chart success. They were helped by John Lennon, Paul McCartney and George Harrison to record a cover version of "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away" on 9 August 1965 at the IBC Studios at around the same time as The Beatles' own version  was released on their album "Help!" The song peaked at No. 28 in the UK Singles Chart and at No. 10 on the U.S. "Billboard" Hot 100 in the same year. Lennon produced, McCartney played the guitar and Harrison kept time by tapping his guitar and also playing the tambourine. When the recording was completed, Lennon was so pleased with it that he played it over the phone to Brian Epstein and told him that they had just recorded a No. 1 hit. The Silkie were then scheduled to tour the United States in December 1965 and had even been  booked to appear on both "The Ed Sullivan Show" and "American Bandstand", but were unable to obtain the necessary visas and work permits, so their tour was subsequently cancelled. They had already released an album, "The Silkie Sing the Songs of Bob Dylan", in 1965 and two further singles, "Keys to My Soul" and "Born to Be With You" were also released in 1966, but all three releases failed to make either the UK or the US charts. In the autumn of 1966 the original Silkie lineup split when Aylesbury and Cunningham departed. Valediction. Mike Ramsden and Sylvia Tatler married  in January 1966, and they went on to perform as a duo version of The Silkie for a further 35 years, often appearing at their local pub, The Cott Inn at Dartington, Devon sometimes accompanied by their children. Ramsden guested as a vocalist on the album "Western Flier", alongside the 20-year-old keyboard player Mike Batt, recorded in 1969 by the proto-psychedelic folk band Hapshash and the Coloured Coat. Mike received a kidney transplant in 1993, but died aged 60 on 17 January 2004 in Totnes, Devon, after a long battle with kidney disease. Sylvia died, aged 73 , on 14 July 2018.
