Winchester Cathedral
Winchester Cathedral: a large Church of England cathedral in Winchester, Hampshire, England.
This song won the 1966 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary (R&R) Recording. Don’t ask why, I don’t know, although it is a pleasing departure from the norm! "Winchester Cathedral" (Geoff Stephens: The Crying Game, There’s a King of Hush, Goodbye Sam, Hello Samantha, Daughter of Darkness) by The New Vaudeville Band hit the top spot in 1966. Recorded entirely by session musicians including the vocal lead of John Carter, when the song became a hit, a band was assembled and managed by Peter Grant, who later managed The Yardbirds and Led Zeppelin.
The demo is heard here along with the hit.
