"The Pied Piper" #4 7/23/1966

And we're back from vacation! Crispian St. Peters, whose real name was Robin Peter Smith, had his second and by far his biggest Top 40 record with this one, based on the children's tale. He previously made the US Top 40 with his version of "You Were On My Mind" which was also a UK Top 5 tune. Our song today was originally done by the Changin' Times. Half of that duo, Arnie Kornfeld, went on to be a co-promoter of the Woodstock festival in 1969.
