I'll be sure to track down "What is Wrong, What is Right" for a listen.<br /><br />I saw the Hermits in 1967 at Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto - The Who opened for them! Lek Lekenby was very kind to a couple of teenyboppers watching them arrive through a chain link fence. He was the only one of the lot who came over to chat and sign autographs. Very sweet! Have you ever heard their version of "For Your Love?" In my opinion, it's just as good as the Yardbirds' hit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36596203.post-69346739055174442502007-08-03T08:30:00.000-07:002007-08-03T08:30:00.000-07:00Yes, "Museum" is another one of my faves!

Their manager must have been very good at snapping up other artists' best material for them to record!<BR/><BR/>Good to hear from you, Ron!Holly A Hugheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17828633442418722187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36596203.post-36011369874398869662007-08-02T18:24:00.000-07:002007-08-02T18:24:00.000-07:00Please listen to "Museum" by HH - it's written by ...Please listen to "Museum" by HH - it's written by Donovan, but it's even better than Donovan's version!Ron Kanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07085455226260859567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36596203.post-77898157368720933822007-05-31T14:47:00.000-07:002007-05-31T14:47:00.000-07:00I know all the Herman's Hermits songs you mention ...I know all the Herman's Hermits songs you mention except for this one!

I also had a thing for Derek Leckenby -- or Lek, as Tiger Beat told us to call him.

I don't remember this track, though. It does point to other things that might have been. One question: are you still kissing those album covers? :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36596203.post-42668133428641752662007-05-11T11:08:00.000-07:002007-05-11T11:08:00.000-07:00Yeah, The Hermits And The Dave Clark 5 were always...Yeah, The Hermits And The Dave Clark 5 were always bigger in America, I'm sure part of the apeal were Noone and Clark themselves.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
