A SIGN OF THE TIMES
Petula Clark




"A Sign of the Times" was the followup to Petula Clark's #1 US hit "My Love", continuing her association with writer/producer Tony Hatch though with a more percussive sound than was evident on Clark's previous singles – or would be evident on her later ones. The song was recorded at the Pye Studios in Marble Arch in a session which featured guitarist Big Jim Sullivan and the Breakaways vocal group. Petula Clark introduced "A Sign of the Times" on the Ed Sullivan Show broadcast February 27, 1966. The single would peak on the Billboard Hot 100 at #11 on April 23, 1966.
