In
1966, Peter Adler quit The
Action over
musical differences, but soon found another group of British exiles
living in Dublin. The
Next In Line were
a mod/soul group from London who based themselves in Dublin for a time,
living in a flat above the infamous Green
Tureen restaurant
on Harcourt Street. The line-up included ‘Bruce’ (vocals), Max
Ker-Seymer (lead guitar), Bojang Meftah (rhythm guitar), Tony
Cousins (bass) and Bunt Stafford-Clark (drums) and backing
Adler they supported visiting acts such as The Hollies and The Who.
Decca issued one more Peter Adler single in May 1966 – ‘I’m
Gonna Turn My Life Around’ / ‘But
I Was Cool’. The
Next In Line are
reported to have backed him on the record, though it also featured a
brass section and organ solo so must at least have had outside musicians
involved. The ‘A’-side was written by Adler and is a bone-fide mod
gem, with an Oscar Brown Jr. song on the reverse.
