Peter Sellers[edit]

"To their surprise, he agreed, and the song became Sellers' only professionally recorded song." According to the Wikipedia article, Sellers recorded many professional songs. Would somebody like to defend the statement? Ogg 11:35, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Nobody has stepped forward to defend the statement, so I have altered it to "rock band". Sellers recorded with an orchestra, and "Goodness Gracious me" was a hit, so there is no excuse for perpetuating the falsehood. ~~ —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ogg (talk • contribs) 09:51, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have just discovered that Peter Sellers recorded the title song of "Caccia alla volpe" (1966) (Neil Simon's play "After The Fox") together with the rock group The Hollies. (See http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0060200/fullcredits#writers). This means that "New York Girls" is not the only recording by Sellars to be made with a rock band.

Weary Cutters[edit]

Who are the two female singers for the fine a cappella song "Weary Cutters"? Presumably one is Maddy Prior. Who is the other singer? What other a cappella songs did Maddy Prior or Steeleye Span do?

"Maddy Prior sings both parts of an a cappella duet wherein her lover in pressed into service (ie kidnapped onto a British Navy ship) by the Weary Cutters." (www.romm.org/CD1.html Baron David E Romm)

"In 2002 Park Records released the a cappella folk album Bib and Tuck by 'Maddy Prior And The Girls', a trio composed of Maddy Prior, Rose Kemp and Abbie Lathe." Rose Kemp is the daughter of Maddy Prior and Rick Kemp of the folk-rock band Steeleye Span.
