Alan Klein
Alan Charles Klein (born 29 June 1940) is an English singer-songwriter and musician. He wrote the soundtrack for the stage play and film, What a Crazy World (1963). In 1964, he released his only solo album, Well at Least It's British, that was re-released in 2008 by RPM Records.
Klein was born in Clerkenwell, London. Some of his recordings were made with the record producer, Joe Meek.
In 1966, he went on tour as lead vocalist of The New Vaudeville Band, billed as 'Tristam, Seventh Earl of Cricklewood'. A year earlier, Klein wrote and performed a parody of "Eve of Destruction", with an attack on folk-singers such as Donovan and Bob Dylan, entitled "Age of Corruption". It used the same melody as P. F. Sloan's song, and was released as a track on Klein's album Well at Least It's British, and as a single.
"Honey Pie" / "You Turned a Nightmare into a Dream" was also released in the U.S., under the pseudonym "Earl of Cricklewood" (Page One 21,021; March 1969).
