Here's To Forever / Funny Familiar Forgotten Feelings

Released in 1967 on the Astro Records label, this single by Margaret Elliott represents a specific moment in the mid-sixties independent record scene. It captures the era's transition between traditional pop vocal stylings and the evolving production trends of the late sixties, serving as a modest example of the prolific output from smaller labels that operated outside the major studio systems of the time.

The record pairs 'Here's To Forever' with 'Funny Familiar Forgotten Feelings,' a song notably popularized by artists like Don Gibson and Tom Jones. Elliott's version reflects the tendency of independent artists to interpret contemporary hits for local markets, providing a distinct, intimate take on the material that prioritized vocal clarity and arrangement over the large-scale orchestral production typical of major label counterparts.
