Bernard Stanley "Acker" Bilk MBE was an English clarinettist and vocalist known for his appearance - goatee, bowler hat and striped waistcoat - and breathy, vibrato-rich, lower-register clarinet style. Bilk's 1962 instrumental tune "Stranger on the Shore" became the UK's biggest selling single of 1962: it was in the UK charts for more than 50 weeks, peaked at number two, and was the first No. 1 single in the United States by a British artist in the era of the modern Billboard Hot 100 pop chart
