"New" Pete Ham Song Available

A very rare Pete Ham song has been put up for listening on peteham.net. The song, "John Forgot to Sing", is a gospel-type song; very melodic and moving. Both lyrically and musically it sounds like it was intended to be a Christmas tune. Pete is accompanied by Tom Evans on harmony vocals and acoustic guitar. Discrete strings seem to have been overdubbed. Sound quality is surprisingly good; especially on the vocals and the guitar. The song was recorded around 1969-70
On tomevans.info a Dodgers Christmas tune "Radio Clyde Merry Christmas", originally from 1976 has been uploaded.
