A World Without Sounds of the Sixties 9 Years, 7 Months ago
SOTS played A World Without Love, a No1 in the UK and US for Peter and Gordon, just when I first met Peter Asher. Written by Lennon/McCartney (sounds more Paul than John to me). Someone should do a show featuring all the hits written for other artistes like P&G, Billy J Kramer, Cilla, Mary Hopkins - stunning achievement in the 60s and 70s.

... sounds more Paul than John to me
You are right. Apparently when your pal John heard the line "Please lock me away" he fell about laughing and refused to have anything to do with the song, reckoning no one would ever record it.

I often wish John was still around. He would have been a very useful friend for me over the past 15 years. An intelligent, supportive and loyal man with many negative sides too. He didn't suffer fools gladly.
