Lyn Paul - "Love" & Marty Kristian - "Crying In The Rain"

1973至1975年期間,Lyn PaulMarty Kristian這兩位前〈The New Seekers〉樂隊成員,皆曾以個人名字獨唱方式,為其所屬寶麗多(Polydor)唱片公司灌唱了一些歌曲。其中的兩首都曾極被當年的港澳流行樂迷所喜愛,並也是筆者多年來的自列金曲。但可惜的是擁有版權的環球(UMG)或其前身的寶麗金(PolyGram)唱片公司,卻從未把這兩首歌名為"Love"及"Crying In The Rain"作CD形式出版。

The New Seekers〉樂隊於1974年中宣佈拆夥後,Lyn Paul隨即開展了她的個人歌唱事業,並繼續灌唱於寶麗多旗下,"Love"是1975年2月寶麗多Lyn Paul出版的第三張七吋單曲唱片Side A歌曲,Side B則是"I Could Get Arrested"。這兩首加上另一首她被某大名牌汽水借用為繼"I'd Like To Teach The World To Sing"之後推出的廣告歌曲"It Oughta Sell A Million",其後皆被收錄於她的首張個人LP唱片《Give Me Love》內。

"Love"


"Crying In The Rain"這首出自Howard GreenfieldCarole King的作品歌曲,1961年逕Everly Brothers首次灌唱及廣受歡迎後。1973年中,Marty Kristian把它重新編曲及以他低沉的聲調作演譯,他這張"Crying In The Rain"/"A Woman Grows"單曲唱片推出後,在當年港澳地區樂壇上的受落程度,一點也不差於Everly Brothers的先前版本,其後也被收錄於一張名為《Peter Paul & Marty》的LP專集內,而這LP專集更覆蓋了由其他兩位The New Seekers男成員Peter Oliver及Paul Layton主唱的歌曲。
