Wait .. The Box Tops were fronted by a guy who was ... American and white?   I always thought the singer was some black delta blues artist and/or and English Northern bluesman.

"Peter Brown called to say..."
I met that Peter Brown at a Beatles convention in '83

Did he have anything to say about The Love You Make, the sometimes-scathing Beatles bio he co-wrote with Stephen Gaines?  I think it was out by then.
“The choir of children sing their song.  They've practiced all year long.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.”
