Title: Vince Hill RIP

Must admit that I hadn't heard of him for many years - best known number was 'Edelweiss'. He has just died aged 89

I remember the name and the song but like you not a great deal more recent. RIP

I don't remember much about him, apart from that song.  RIP

Always a dignified receptacle of Morecambe and Wise's comical derisions. Thanks Vince ...

now I set my rubbishy memory to work, not only with M&W, didn't he have a sort of evening show on a regular basis years ago?

He was. I liked his singing.  His only son died a few years ago, tragic for his parents.
