1965 Caravan of Stars - Fall Tour

Peter and Gordon once again headline this Caravan unit, toruing for five weeks in August and September.  Dick Clark had signed British talent Tom Jones and Van Morrison's Them for this unit but Them cancelled out at the last minute.  Instead, he turned to CAlifornia folk-rock group the Turtles to replace them.  The Turtles didn't join the Caravan until it had been on the road for a couple of weeks.
