Notes

Rare single by Frddie Lennon father of John Lennon - originally released in 1965, the track was co-written by Freddie and his manager Tony Cartwright (producer, and manager of stars including Tom Jones and Englebert Humperdink). The pair originally met after Tony discovered that Freddie was working in a pub kitchen in Shepperton, washing dishes! It turned out that Freddie hadn't seen his son John for over 20 years, and had no idea that he was living nearby. Both from Liverpool, Tony and Freddie struck up a close friendship, and Freddie even moved in to live with Tony for a while. It was Tony who later re-introduced Freddie to John. Discovering Freddie was a singer and banjo player, Tony encouraged him to co-write a song. Inspired by stories Freddie told about his life, the track is believed to be the first ever known recordings of musicians Mitch Mitchell and Noel Redding, of the Jimi Hendrix Experience. Although on its initial release the song saw commercial success, it suddenly disappeared from the chart. Rumours as to who was responsible for its mysterious disappearance have circulated ever since. Tony Cartwright recently approached Right Recordings, as he had a great fondness for Freddie and always wanted this record re-released, albeit now posthumously. The release had been planned for 2015, the 50th anniversary of the original release date. However various delays, and developments in new digital re-mastering techniques, means only now can it be re-released in its full original glory. Alfred Freddie Lennon was born in Liverpool in 1912. He married Julia Stanley in 1938, and John, the couple's only child together, was born in 1940. Alfred and Julia separated soon after John Lennon's birth, and Alfred went on to marry Pauline Jones, with whom he had two children. Although they later reconciled, Alfred and John had a difficult relationship, and John was allegedly unhappy about his father releasing this single. Alfred died in Brighton in 1976, aged 63.
