NEW * Peter & Gordon - A World Without Love (1964, Stereo) 4K
1964... #1 US Cash Box Top 100 #1 US Billboard Hot 100 #1 UK Singles #1 Canada Top Singles #1 New Zealand Charts.. John Lennon and Paul McCartney wrote this song. It is the biggest hit they wrote that was not released by The Beatles. It became the first and biggest hit for Peter & Gordon. Peter Asher was the elder brother of McCartney’s girlfriend Jane Asher. He and Gordon Waller recorded a number of songs by McCartney, including ‘A World Without Love’, ‘Nobody I Know’, ‘I Don’t Want To See You Again’, and ‘Woman’. McCartney initially offered ‘A World Without Love’ to Billy J Kramer, who declined it. This was meant to be recorded by The Beatles, but that plan was vetoed by John Lennon. Asher explained: "John thought the first line 'Please lock me away' was laughable." This song found its way to Peter Asher when Paul McCartney was living in the Asher household at 57 Wimpole Street in London during his time dating Jane Asher. He played the song for Peter while in his bedroom. John Lennon and Paul McCartney wrote this song. It is the biggest hit they wrote that was not released by The Beatles. It became the first and biggest hit for Peter & Gordon.
Peter Asher recalled how the duo came to record this song: "Paul had played Gordon and me that song at some point, just in passing. It was really just half a song. It didn't yet have a bridge. Gordon and I were working at clubs in London at that time, and we got offered a record deal by EMI, who saw us as an English version of The Kingston Trio, or a Peter, Paul and Mary type of thing. We did the American folk song '500 Miles,' and that was the song they were thinking would be our first single. Anyway, we signed the record deal with EMI, and set the date for our first recording session. At that point I went to Paul and asked him if that orphaned song was still up for grabs, since we needed three or four songs to record on that first day in the studio. Paul said we could have it, so I asked him to finish the bridge. And he did. As I recall, the bridge came in the nick of time for us to record; World Without Love' at that first session."
