PETER AND GORDON - MORNING’S CALLING

PETER & GORDON - ’Lady Godiva’/’Morning’s Calling’ (Columbia DB 8003) September 1966 I’ve not got any other Peter & Gordon record in my collection apart from this single from September 1966. Peter & Gordon have always sounded way too wimpy for my tastes and their squaresville image didn’t help either. However, I was hipped to this 45 by Mole from The Higher State last year and I’m glad he waved their flag. The top side ’Lady Godiva’ hit the top 20 in the UK but I’m far more interested in the hidden gem on the flip. ’Morning’s Calling’ is a wondeful folk-rock jangler, written by the duo themselves. I’m wondering if I’ve missed out on any more of their recorded underground sounds.
