New in the DylanCover.com collection: Peter Pan Pop Singers

The Mighty Quinn
Peter Pan Pop Singers and Orchestra
The Unicorn
LP: Peter Pan Records 8068; 1968? (US)

Maybe buying this children's music LP is a sign that my collecting has gone too far... but in my defense it was only 1¢ on eBay, for a well-worn copy. Fortunately the Mighty Quinn band was not too bad, apparently not a favorite of the previous owner. You would expect songs on a kid's music album to be upbeat, but this rendition by a mixed male and female chorus is surprisingly lackluster. The "orchestra" is comprised of an organ, sax, and percussion. A product of S.P.C. Inc., Newark, New Jersey USA, no date on cover or label, but I'd guess 1968 when the Irish Rovers had their hit with The Unicorn (perhaps the LP number 8068 is also a hint.)
