Title: Does any recognise this man? Post by: Bongo on October 19, 2006, 09:36:41 PM My mother is doing some form of quiz and I have been roped into helping. Can anyone help me get some peace by identifying this gentleman?

Title: Re: Does any recognise this man? Post by: Colchester Kev on October 19, 2006, 10:28:45 PM .
Title: Re: Does any recognise this man? Post by: Claw75 on October 19, 2006, 10:29:21 PM not either of them Kev. And before anyone else goes to the bother, I've googled images of every singer who was number one in the 50s and it ain't any of them! thinking now it might be an actor
Title: Re: Does any recognise this man? Post by: Claw75 on October 19, 2006, 10:29:56 PM nothing like him Kev!

Title: Re: Does any recognise this man? Post by: AlrightJack on October 19, 2006, 11:00:52 PM The big bopper - ridiculous name for a singer. More appropriate for a rollercoaster.

"Hi Big" "Hello Mr Bopper" or "Oi, t**t with the silly name!" Title: Re: Does any recognise this man? Post by: Ironside on October 19, 2006, 11:15:00 PM it was the latter
Title: Re: Does any recognise this man? Post by: BrumBilly on October 19, 2006, 11:21:07 PM I think it's a good name. Beats P.Diddy and others of that ilk.
Title: Re: Does any recognise this man? Post by: snoopy1239 on October 20, 2006, 12:20:45 AM Looks like a 50s crooner to me. I don't think it's Bing Crosby tho, how about Bobby Darin. Did he look anything like that?
