NoteIn between Opportunity Knocks and Eurovision, Mary Hopkin also found herself taking part in the San Remo Festival, coming second with Lontano Dagli Occhi. Quite a good tune, as it happens. The Game is the George Martin penned track from the Post Card album, that was also wheeled out on the flip side of Prince En Avignon (Apple 9, France). It has a lovely score, but, like so much on Post Card sounds old-fashioned and unnatural in Mary's hands.
SleeveIssued in a green/yellow/sepia picture sleeve with a nice picture of Mary superimposed on the silhouette of an Apple. The green sleeve with Apple cutout design was particularly favoured in Holland where even the earliest Apple singles (Those Were The Days, Sour Milk Sea, etc.) were issued in picture sleeves.
