Hurdy Gurdy Man (The Spectres song)

"Hurdy Gurdy Man" is a single released by the British rock band The Spectres (a predecessor of Status Quo) in 1966. This was the band's second single, and first to be penned by a member of the band. It was written by Alan Lancaster and a writer who sold his rights to the song to Pat Barlow. The B-side, although only credited to Lancaster, was co-written by Rick Parfitt, who at the time was not an official member of the band.
