“Ten Below” by Chris & Peter Allen
Last week was very cold. It's not as cold now. But last week was very cold. Let's celebrate getting through it with this delightful wintery sunshine pop song from 1968 by The Allen Brothers, another fine musical product of Australia.
Made up of Peter Allen and Chris Bell (not of Big Star fame), the Allen Brothers were discovered by Judy Garland while on tour in Asia. Peter even ended up marrying Liza Minelli, despite suspicion that he and Chris were lovers.
