Played golf with Peter and his friend at Sandpiper Golf Course in Santa Barbara Calif in the 1980's. Guy had an infectious grin, seemed happy and contented playing golf close to the coast in S. Calif. Had a British accent, seemed vaguely familiar, told me he was an actor/singer. I asked his name again and he said 'Peter.' I said if they ever hold a Peter Noone look-alike contest he should enter. Well, he was Peter Noone. Very delightful man.

[@danbgt]

I’m an old guy. Herman’s Hermits was one of my favorites back in the day. I went to see Peter a few years ago. His daughter opened for him. He is a very talented guy. Great performance. I’ll see him again this time around.

[@desertwind306]

I had the pleasure of seeing Peter perform in Las Vegas at the Cannery, a few years back. It was like stepping back in time listening to him sing. Yes, for a few minutes I was 15 again, and I loved it. He has such a wonderful voice, and his songs are timeless. My favorite, "There's a kind of hush all over the world tonight".... and there was!

It had been one of his favorite songs in his youth from the Music Halls, and, then, of course he regaled me with lots of others❤️❤️❤️❤️. However, the ending he sang was, “…Enery the eighth I am, by d*mn”. 😂🤣😂🤣😂

Back in the early 90s I watch Peter at a Granite Rock concert in Aromas California. It was a great show and he did all of his old music that took us back to the old days. Then the following Monday I found myself standing behind him as we were checking into our hotel in Eden Prairie Minnesota. I mentions that I had just come from California where I saw his show. He commented that he never thought he's be playing at a rock quarry (it is where it was held). He was a great guy and it was fantastic that he took the time to talk to me, one to one.

@@RJ1999x Right. Jerry Lee Lewis recorded and released "Great Balls of Fire" around the time my great grandfather died in 1957. I faintly remember listening to it in one room of the house while he was on his deathbed in a nearby room. Since small children weren't allowed in the room (though the door was open and I could see him), the two events didn't seem to clash because they seemed part of two different worlds.

I had a chance to See Peter as the Major General in Pirates at the Chicago opera House in the late 80's, My better half (wife and still) dragged me there, she did not tell me who was the lead, I was surprised that I recognized the Voice and asked her if it was Peter in the lead. He was spectacular. There songs are still on my 60's pop playlist.

[@romanticandperky]

I'm amazed by this story. As a kid, I was with my older brother when I heard all those Herman's Hermits records. My brother grew up to be a singer/songwriter/guitarist, and among his friends was (drum roll, please) Keith Richards. Brother would spend the night together with him and his family, playing their guitars and (ahem) having a drink or two. In fact, brother once brought our Mom over to Keith Richards' house for a birthday party he was hosting. She had a glass of wine. True story.

[@ikkenhisatsu7170]

I was maybe 7 years old and he was my idol. I guess that was a few years after their popularity peaked, but I was lucky enough to see them live a couple of times. Can you imagine dropping off a couple of kids that age at a concert today? God bless Peter Noone!

[@RandyFricke]

My band was recording at Cherokee Studios in L.A. back in the early '80s. One day in walks Peter Noone and listened to some playbacks for a few minutes. I was (and am) a big Herman's Hermits fan so I spent most of the encounter with my jaw on the floor.

I remember being hit by a car in 1971 at the age of 11 when “Years May Come" was out. I have very catholic taste in music from Otis Redding to Beethoven not forget old blue eyes on the way. However, because of how much Hermins Hermits were on the radio such much at the time and through that six weeks I was in hospital they have a very soft spot in my heart for them.

[@fenwayify]

People long for simpler and happier times. Herman's Hermits were a friendly, smiling, cheerful, innocent counter-balance to the trauma of the civil rights movement and the Vietnam War. Noone brought that wholesome, non-threatening sound that would soon be copied across the pond in America, by folks like the Osmond brothers, though the Osmond boys were more white bread, whole milk corn-pone as well. The appeal still holds for folks seeking respite from the grim, "gimme shelter" realities of life...

[@chrisgreulich]

Herman's Hermits are still my favorite group from the 60's. They have so many great songs. I really love Peter Noone. Check out Hold On! (1966), Mrs. Brown, You've Got a Lovely Daughter (1968) if you like Herman's Hermits.

Spoke with him 'On Air' from KIQY FM Albany, OR in early '89 as half of 'the Breakfast Flakes' morning show.

Keith Richard's advice was more like big brother advice than fatherly. There was maybe a 5 or 6 year difference in their ages. KR probably made several mistakes over the years in relation to drugs and alcohol but he could still give sound advice.

[@jeffburns4219]

Re: 2:04: No, the Beatles were not recording Abby Road in 1965. Abby Road was recorded in 1969. The Beatles were recording Rubber Soul in 1965. Re: 4:22: “Music was always entertainment”: Noone is using the term “music” here as if “music” and “pop music” are synonymous. They are not. You could certainly argue that pop music is largely, although not exclusively, merely frivolous entertainment, but jazz, Western European classical music, Indian classical music, and so on, are art. Re: 6:54: “Suddenly someone decides they’re going to teach us how to behave”. Of course Noone, although he doesn’t seem fully aware of the distinction, is talking about lyrics here, not music (even though they’re fitted together almost ubiquitously in pop, they’re not the same). Music itself can’t explicitly tell you anything. Anyway, it’s odd that Huckabee appears to agree considering that he’s a Baptist minister, presumably intimately familiar with the most famous kind of song that most famously tells us-constantly-how to behave. This kind of song is called a “hymn”, and hymns were performed much more often in the fifties than The King and I, to say nothing of the forties and, for that matter, the 1840’s and the 1740’s. In short, Noone producing artistically insignificant records to appeal, as a teenage heartthrob, to twelve and thirteen-year-old girls is fine and dandy, but I don’t think he has any business telling everyone else they can’t attempt something more ambitious.
