Second Verse Same as the First

Herman's Hermits:
the NVO's favorite group as a teenage boy in Junior High School.
After last night they may very well be my favorite group.. right now!

Sneaking around the corner, produced this snazzy shot of Peter Noone:
A clever, stealth, and ninja-like photographer am I, eh?

And how about this anomaly: 
This band did not "do drugs" and Peter Noone has been married 
to the same woman for over 40 years. 
(To a Frenchwoman, you know this, Domy?)
Very impressive!
 "There's a Kind of Hush" is my favorite. 
And your's?

  1. OMG! Yes, I was a Herman's Hermits Fan! When I saw the title of this post I started singing that in my head so I knew exactly what you were talking about. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

  4. That is so nice and refreshing to read about a band and a lead singer. You hear such dreadful stories all the time. This is such a nice change ; )
    Have a great day.

  5. Henery the 8th...of course! A bit of Cockney pronunciation there! We sing that song all the time. It's actually a 1910 Harry Campion signature music-hall song. We just saw Peter and the Herman's Hermits on a British Music Special on the Public TV Channel. He looks good! Both Hubby and I love his group. So many great hits! Lucky you to see them in person. Also glad to hear he wasn't into the drugs or women. He's still a cutie!

  7. I don't know if this is a Herman's Hermits song, but "Somethin' Tells Me I'm Into Somethin' Good" started playing in my head as soon as I saw that first photo. I do love "There's a Kind of Hush" too.

    How nice to hear that they stayed clean - that's probably why he looks so good (as opposed to, say, Mick Jagger).

  8. I like that song, too. Now I am gonna be singing it all day. :) But they have lots of good ones. Sounds like a great evening. Best wishes, Tammy

  9. A walk down memory lane for many of us. :-)

    Mr. Noone did look good. LOL on Mick comment, Sue! Must be that clean living. You are right about "Something Good" there's also a "Heartbeat" song that's good and never to forget "Mrs. Brown".
