@wendywiz1 WOW!, I'm in the same boat as you and feel exactly the same way!. Such brillaint memories but I do remember feeling a bit scared the way the world was going to turn out back in the days. Turns out I was right!
Thank you thank you thank you. I had the single in 1967, i can remember that i played the B-Side as often as the A-Side. I think the band was musically overlooked, they were really more than a band with a few hits.
Haven't heard "Gone are the songs of yesterday" for about 40 years now. Thought it was the better side of the disc and still do. Love it.... takes me back to my youth. Thanks for sharing. x

The B-side is lovely. First, it shows how much Steve Ellis could sound like Otis Redding. Secondly, that sweet simple orchestration reminds me of film scores of that times such as "Kes." Thanks for sharing!!
i was about minus -4 when this song came out but as far as my opinion goes it leaves the so called pop songs of today as flat as the pancakes i rustled up yesterday! :o)
I was about minus-23 when "Everlasting Love" was released, and I love it 10 times more than any music that's been released in my lifetime. - Beat that! lol
No wonder so many people have covered it.
BTW is this from the original vinyl or something? I'm picking up some slightly warmer neuences than I do on the CD version.
i wasn't quite born when this song came out but as far as i'm concerned it leaves everything of todays so called pop songs as flat as the pancakes i rustled up yesterday! :o)

@choralstuart There's only one thing wrong with the your comment friend, this was most definitely from the 1960's.

@MrJohnop Yes, this was definitely from the sixties. I remember it well, what I did, where I was and I was 18 then.

Was out when I was a lad. I'm now a full time singer in a band. Never realised then how good this bass player was. Classic stuff.

It wasn't the band's bassist - Herbie Flowers was on bass - a legend.

Sorry about that withdrawal, I saw a spelling error.
"How can no one not comment on The Love Affair?"
For my generation they gave us so many memories as John L said; "People and places i'll remember them all."
The Love Affair's music does exactly that.
