Obituaries and Eulogies / Re: R.I.P. - Craig Douglas (85) Pop Singer
« Last post by johng on Today at 04:47:53 »
Time was one of his few Australian lower level Top 40 hits. Most of his UK chart hits were covers of U.S. artists., sung in a smooth crooning style.  His first cover version of Gene McDaniel's "A hundred Pounds Of Clay" was banned from airplay by BBC because of  suggestive lyrics, a a result a second 'cleaner' version was recorded. Appeared in a couple of pop-music themed movies - check out YouTube and "Rainbows" - was also a 45rpm B side - and has always been one of my favourite songs!!

Obituaries and Eulogies / R.I.P - Shirley Strachan : 25th Anniversary

It's hard to believe that today... 29th August... is the 25th anniversary of "Shirley" Strachan dying when the helicopter he was flying crashed on Mount Archer in Queensland.

R.I.P. Shirl. I hope you've been having the Party To End All Parties.
