Hello fellow Peter fans! I was wondering what your thoughts were on the Peter Allen dedicated YouTube channel called The Music & Magic of Peter Allen? It's an appreciation channel/archive. That is if you have checked it out. The Music & Magic of Peter Allen is also on Facebook and Pinterest. I created these sites and just wanted some feedback from fellow fans. If you have any videos or photos you would like to share then that would be unbelievably great!!! Thanks! P.S. I really hope you all don't mind, but I shared some pictures from this site on the Pinterest page. I can remove them if you want. You have some really rare photos from tour programs and magazines that I've never seen before. ![]() ![]() |

EXCELLENT! Your YouTube channel looks brilliant. Thank you, pallasa, and welcome.
P.S. No worries on sharing. If it's here, it's been shared already.
P.P.S. Some of us are old enough that we were there at Peter's shows, hence the programmes, etc.

Hi again PA fans,
I'm not so much a memorabilia collector, but a collector of Peter's songs and videos. That's one of the reasons why I created an archive made up of Peter's music and videos. Plus, it's the only YouTube channel solely dedicated to him other than an auto-generated YouTube channel that contains songs by the Canadian composer, Peter Allen as well...darn algorithms. Actually, I'm wrong, there was one channel devoted to Peter's songs and videos by the name of Vehrich (whom I'm greatly influenced and inspired by), who sadly, hasn't posted anything on their channel in years. Also, there is an Official Peter Allen Facebook page that consists of postings for only one month in 2015, and hasn't been updated since! What gives?! Here is a super talented guy who has hardly any social media presence. That's changed now!!!!!! I'm always on the hunt for new videos and rare songs of Peter's. Please take a look at the lists and maybe you may have one of these rare treasures!!! Thank you all so extremely much!
PETER ALLEN SONG WISH LIST
Two impossibly rare demos from 1974, where Peter sings "I've Been Wanting You So Long" and "This is Missing You". If anyone has either or both of these songs then please contact me in the comments. Any recording format of these songs are welcome - acetate, vinyl, cassette, CD, digital - as long as I can hear these songs!

Have you ever seen the Aussie nature series Peter narrated? (clip @1:40)
Pretty sure I have his portion of the Reno Sweeney benefit on a DVD of performances I put together years ago. It's not the whole show, just Peter. Three songs? It's been a while. My memory of it is fuzzy.
Have you heard this audio?
I always loved his stories.
P.S. There are a few Don Lane videos available commercially, put out after his death. They are not "US region" compatible.

Yes, Ben Cropp has the nature series on his YouTube page. I LOVE the one with Peter scuba diving with the potato cod! I have the PA celebration DVD, which I had to convert in order to watch it. It contained all his interviews with Don Lane, except for the one from 1983. I would LOVE to see your Reno Sweeney clips!!!!!!!! I would also LOVE to put it on the YT channel and mention you and the forum in the video description. Unfortunately, the audio clip you shared doesn't play, but says the video is unavailable.

Thanks so much, Pallasa, for your Peter archive. I will definitely delve into it on YouTube. Plus, Valerie, I’d never heard that story on Pat Sajak’s talk show. Peter was hilarious. I’m glad the world’s deadliest creature was busy mating and didn’t bother Peter, LOL.

It will take a while to go through since I think there's over 300 videos on it so far!! |
