Anyone near Secaucus NJ, might be worth a trip.. Beatles festival returns
Legendary British invasion duo Peter & Gordon to play in Secaucus
After a 35 year hiatus, Peter & Gordon - once called the "Everly Brothers of the British Invasion" - will perform in Secaucus at the annual Festival for Beatles Fans over the weekend of March 31 through April 2.
The duo first hit number one in 1964 with "A World Without Love," a song written by Paul McCartney and John Lennon, and followed up with nine more top-40 hits, including two others written by the Beatles.
Although not as well remembered by the general public as other British invasion bands, Peter & Gordon were in the forefront of English groups that helped change the sound of music in the 1960s.
The rest: LINKBtw, this would be Peter Asher, brother of Jane.

Makes me wonder about Peter Asher, something I can't put my finger on, but there is more to this man's career than being part of English Every Brothers, how did he become a record producer? Why is he significant?
Just something about this that is a curiosity to me.

Why? To keep a lid on things, among other reasons. Who do you think signed the hack Fred LaBour to a lucrative recording contract?

People were either bought out, threatened or both. The whole thing makes me feel sick inside. I have no trouble believing that Tavistock & the British Gov't. is behind it all.

An interesting fact, Paul wrote the song "Woman" for Peter and Gordon, and it came out in early 1966. He used a pseudonym, "Bernard Webb". Apparently a couple other songs under this name: LINK
