And I've got him on 12". Oh yes...
I was really saddened by the news. Loved him in Tutti Frutti.

That's just crying out for the headline "The Killer is dead," though... I always tried to copy his vocal inflections when we covered "Great Balls of Fire".and "Whole Lot of Shakin' Going On" in a medley.

Sad news closer to home. I have just read that legendary UK audio designer Glenn Croft has just passed away. Oh, that's sad. I once had an entertaining conversation with him about his OTL design versus his Series 4S power amp. He favoured the former, I very much favoured the latter. Nice chap, one of few remaining cottage industries with personal service and friendly non-aggressive manner.

Let's not forget the legendary R&B singer Joyce Sims who was touring the UK when she passed away in October. She was a year younger than me and her disco records were part of my vinyl collection.
