Robert Knight - Love on a Mountain Top / Everlasting Love (7" Single)

N/A

Robert Knight (born Robert Peebles) was originally a member of The Paramounts who signed to Dot Records in 1960. He scored a modest hit with Free Me before returning to University to complete his chemistry degree. In 1967 he signed to Buzz Cason'€™s Rising Sons label and cut Everlasting Love, a #13 Hot 100 hit. In the UK the pop group Love Affair took it to #1 with their cover version the following year. Love on a Mountain Top, another Buzz Cason composition, was recorded in '68 but failed to chart. However, via the explosion of the Northern Soul scene in late '™73 it shot to #10 on the UK chart prompting a reissue of Everlasting Love which broke the top 20 in March '74. Here, at last, over 40 years later we have both soul classics back-to-back!
