John Carter | My World Fell Down (Comp.) | Album

The anthology "My World Fell Down: The John Carter Story" released March 2022 via Grapefruit Records is a comprehensive overview of the career of British pop songwriter and producer John Carter. Critics generally regard it as an essential history of 1960s and 70s British popular music, highlighting Carter's role as a "backroom auteur". Reviews praise the collection for being "meticulously curated" and "marvellously put together," specifically noting the inclusion of a detailed 5,000-word booklet that adds historical context. The set is lauded for showcasing Carter's versatility across multiple genres, including Early work with Carter-Lewis & The Southerners, celebrated "nuggets" like "Let’s Go To San Francisco" (The Flower Pot Men) and the title track "My World Fell Down", plus later 70s successes with The First Class ("Beach Baby") and Kincade ("Dreams Are Ten A Penny").
