Sad news.RIP
That's a shame, but at 96 he had a long life :upvote:
I know the name but that's about it for me. I think he must have been a little before my time.
RIP
Mary's Boy Child and Scarlet Ribbons were so popular. Also the Banana Boat song. He had a lovely voice. From such a poor childhood, its amazing he lived to 96.
RIP
particularly loved 'Scarlet Ribbons'
I vaguely remember those 2 songs from my very early years, my mum was always singing along to the radio and those titles seem familiar. :hmm:
He was certainly a big part of the music scene in my youth.
