Long Haired Lover from Liverpool

Long Haired Lover from Liverpool by Little Jimmy Osmond was a UK number 1 hit on Saturday, December 23, 1972 spending 5 week(s) at the top of the UK charts. This is a borderline novelty song, and was recorded by Little Jimmy Osmond, who at nine years eight months of age became the youngest artist to reach the #1 spot in Britain. Written by Christopher Kingsley, it might be described as The Beatles meet The Mamas And The Papas. Although it was a worthy chart topper, it is difficult to credit that it was chosen as the A Side in preference to the Bill Parkinson composition "Mother Of Mine." Osmondmania was rampant in 1972 Britain and it was no surprise that this was the biggest selling single of the year there. The backing vocals were done by the Mike Curb Congregation.
