Peter & Gordon

Then .....

...... and now (with beautiful groupie)
Not much has changed since we saw the duet last year at the Flower Power Concert Series - it's not sounding like they've taken any vocal coaching to get their singing chops back to the level of their recordings from back in the 60s. They still sing full out, making some of their softer passages become edgy. The rougher sound is OK, except that the backup band played each song practically note-for-note as on the recordings, so there was a somewhat uncomfortable melding of old and new. Some of their tunes included "A World Without Love", 'Nobody I Know", "Lady Godiva", "I Go To Pieces" & "I DOn't Want to See You Again". Glad we have the Disney season passes - not worth a big ticket price for nostalgia.
