Yet another one has gone. According to who you read he was 68 or 69.

Remember when they called him the singing frock. Liked a lot of his songs.

yeah well after 40 years my memory is not perfect - in my memory I had Beverley down as Abigail ... except my memory is even worse than that 'cos memory says Brenda not Beverley. My niece's mother in law is a dead ringer for Beverley, so it goes. I haven't seen the play since the "Play for today" screening.

all the same Demis Roussos music and F&Ever drove me nuts along with the other one who Nana Miskouri who is I think still bopping around.

he sold a lot of records though
