Cover The Hits #1

Post by admin »

Hope you will all take part in Covering The Hits or CTH on Clough's Classics, I will revert to the format used here rather than sending me a private e-mail.

Main criteria is song has to have been a hit in 60s or 50s, by hit I mean made top 50 in US or UK.

Hit of course does not necessarily mean original. I'll widen scope for others so that you can choose acts from any era as long as main criteria. Thanks to Peter for his efforts.

Here is the first - who is CTH on this. Originally a hit for the Big O

Roy Clough

Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

Is it Raoul Malo (not sure of the spelling) of the Mavericks?

Hmm? Could be but I will stick with Greg's guess.
