Geno by Dexys Midnight Runners an absolute classic, although I think my favourite was Dance Stance. I saw Dexy's at what was the Top Rank suite in Brighton before they were anybody and one of the best concerts I have been to. Went staright out and bought a donkey jacket and wooly hat.  Funnily enough Kevin Rowland lives in Brighton and I bumped in to him the other day. |

Nat King Cole is great as well. Straighten Up and Fly Right, Let There Be Love, Smile. He has so many great songs.

I am currently busy collecting some old Nat King Cole stuff, not singing so much but some brilliant Jazz piano when he played with Oscar Moore - amazing sounds from the late 30's. Well worth looking up IMO. |

What's the story behind him starting to sing? I have heard that the regular singer didn't turn up and he stood in for him. He was the piano player of the group at that time. Is that true?
He is a brilliant singer. Him and Frank Sinatra have a really easy way of singing. It doesn't seem any effort at all. When you compare them to some of the singers on top of the pops these days, it just shows how talented they were. I hate it when singers like Robbie Williams try to sing their songs.
I know Michael Jackson comes in for a bit of slagging these days, but he is a really good singer. Songs like Heal the World and Dirty Diana show this.

He isn't my favorite either, but I think he can sing well. To be honest, I am an Eddie Vedder fan when it comes to singing. But M.Jackson does have talent.
Thanks Nakor

Sometimes you have to suffer a little bit in your youth to motivate yourself to succeed in later life. Do you think if Bill Gates got laid in high school, do you think there'd be a Microsoft? Of course not.  |
