1960年代，香港舞廳酒廊嘅駐場樂隊多數都係翻玩國外嘅Cover，少有自家創作，心氣盛嘅泰迪羅賓就因為純粹好玩，聯同關維麟、關偉，三兄弟搵埋陳國明、鄭東漢及後期加入嘅陳家蓀組成Teddy Robin and the play boys翻唱之餘亦自己寫歌，靠眾人嘅天份係香港極速走紅，連環出碟，風頭一時無兩。
時不過六、七年，同期The Lotus的許冠傑由唱英文成功過渡唱粵語，帶起粵歌風潮。呢個時候The Playboys深知花無百日紅，樂隊成員早已各自投身職業，有人向演藝界發展，有人加入唱片行做監製，隨住時代前進，Teddy Robin and the play boys呢個響當當嘅名字成為了歷史堂物像。
然而，好野係幾時都會俾人拎返出黎講。
09年，英國巨Band Oasis來港演出時，大佬Noel Gallagher 就在Milk雜誌訪問中提及對 Teddy Robin and the play boys的敬佩：
記者：你曾經係其他訪問提過你鍾意Teddy Robins嘅〈Magic Colours〉，你地新碟《Dig Out Your Soul》都有同佢好類似嘅迷幻元素，係唔係從中攞到啲靈感？
Noel：我之前係倫敦嘅唱片鋪買左隻碟叫《Love, Peace and Poetry》，係隻60年代亞洲迷幻樂隊嘅合輯黎，應該有好多正野係入面。跟住我開黎聽，個首〈Magic Colours〉，哇，好撚正。好似Jimi Hendrix 咁，係我成世仔聽過最勁嘅野之一。不過我啲靈感唔係係到黎，至少我手結他真係冇佢玩得咁好。
(原文節錄如下：
You mentioned in an interview that you liked this song Magic Colours by a 70s Hong Kong musician called Teddy Robins. It happens that Dig Out Your Soul is very psychedelic sounding as well. Did you get you inspirations from there somehow?
N: I got this record called Love, Peace and Poetry in a record shop in London which was supposed to be a 60s psychedelic record from Asia. I thought there might be some good stuff in there and that track, Magic Colours, it fxxking blew me away! A bit like Jimi Hendrix or something, probably one of the best thing I've ever heard! But no I didn't get my inspirations from there, at least I probably don't play guitar as good as he does.)
雖然收左山好耐，但鄭東漢都冇忘記佢玩結他嘅興趣。17年，仔仔鄭中基Play It Again世界巡迴演唱會香港站，作為老細兼老豆嘅鄭東漢就擔起結他為佢陪奏露返兩手。19年One More Time 演唱會，更有孫女Emma在台上獻唱，一家三代濟濟一台，場面溫馨。一眾樂迷亦可以藉機重溫呢位被英國國寶讚譽嘅結他手技藝。
