Well, I like it, Clive - enough to steal. ;D :thumbs:
-
Steal away. Oh, I remember a Pat Boone song with that title. :)
-
Lonnie Donnegan did it too. :)
-
What an excellent memory you have Rik. Lonnie's version was equally as good.

It's strange, Clive, I didn't 'notice' LD that much at the time, but I find I remember lots of his songs, and not just the hits, eg "The party's over".
-
I always liked his songs but I think Steal Away was too melancholic to be a huge hit for anyone!
-
Though a good rendition of the spirit of the song.
-
A quick google revealed that it was the flipside of "Pick a Bale of Cotton" but it certainly had airplay at the time otherwise I would not have heard his version. I actually had a copy of Pat Boone's version on a compilation LP which I no longer have.
-
He was probably the first singer, at least that I can remember, who brought spirituals to the mainstream. A talented man, under-rated at the time, imo.
-
Yup, My Old Man's a Dustman was very spiritual! ;D
-
Trust Simon to wreck a good thread! ;D

He can't help it, his real name is Phil E Stein. ;D

Davy Arthur did a nice version though I suspect it may be a different song,
Also Foster and Allen........I like this version as well.
The puns well :groan: :groan: :groan: :groan: :groan: :groan: :groan: :groan: :groan:
