I think I was ten years behind you, but I sure remember his name and a little bit about his singing. A fitting tribute for him! andrea

Man oh man, what memories!...'Happy Birthday Sweet Sixteen' and all the others...I heard he wrote 'Oh Carol' for Carol King who was his highschool sweetheart and fellow songwriter...God bless him! - Tim
