Gordon Waller

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gordon Waller (born as Gordon Trueman Riviere Waller, on June 4, 1945 in Braemar, Scotland) is a singer/songwriter/Guitarist, best known as "Gordon" of 1960s duo Peter & Gordon, whose biggest hit was "World Without Love".

While attending Westminster School, he first met fellow student Peter Asher, and together they began playing together as a duo — Peter & Gordon.

Asher is the older brother of actress and businesswoman Jane Asher, who in the mid-1960s was girlfriend of The Beatles' Paul McCartney. Through this connection he and Waller were often given unrecorded Lennon-McCartney songs to perform, most notably their first and biggest hit, 1964's decidedly Beatlesque "World Without Love."

Peter & Gordon disbanded in 1968. Afterwards, Waller attempted a solo career with little success, releasing one record, Gordon and on this album Gordon used New York based group White Cloud featuring Teddy Wender on keyboards. He also appeared in a production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat as Pharaoh, a performance that he reprised on the LP.
