- "Angel of the Morning" was originally a hit for Merilee Rush in the mid
- 60's - I think it was 66 or 67. The song was written by Reg Presley, who
- was a member of the Troggs and also wrote some of their hits i.e. Wild
- Thing, Love is All Around, With a Girl Like You. The second hit version
- was in the early 80's, I think 81 or 82, by Juice Newton. She had been
- around a while previous to this, but had not had any chart success until
- Angel of the Morning hit. After that she had several hits on pop and
- country but I am not sure what is going on with her currently.
