 Before leaving the UA offices, Jordan ran into another UA employee, an acquaintance who had managed Ike & Tina Turner, and told him about Lauder's message and Cerf's rejection.The acquaintance took Jordan into his office, and the two of them then called Lauder in London.As a result, two weeks later Jordan was in London, where Lauder and British UA told him that they could offer the Groovies a contract right then as long as the band temporarily moved to Britain, which Jordan agreed to do.
