Another blast from the past.
Was cruising Youtube, came across Gene Pitney. A singer considered good, but second string by my circle in my teens. I had not realised what a great voice this guy had. (sadly died at age 65, while on tour)
Below 'I'm Gonna Be Strong' from 1965, which shows his voice at his best. Oddly, Gene had a hit from a song I loathed from the first time I heard it, on moral l grounds ; "24 Hours From Tulsa" . I thought it was stunningly shallow and immoral, still do.
