    Default Russ Hamilton....a forgotten star?

    I'd like to suggest the musician/singer,Russ Hamilton for the hall of fame,though I must admit,I had no knowledge of,till spotting an album cover in the Liverpool music section,of the museum!? Russ,(real name,Ronnie Hulme) was from Everton,and he pre-dated the Beatles,by scoring several hits in the U.S. from 1957 onwards,including one,who's A-side was a million seller here,and the B-side doing likewise in America,which I think is unique!!!
    His career faded after a couple of years,and apparently,he made little money from his success,due to bad(?) management,and didn't even receive his coveted gold discs! He died in North wales in 2008,a forgotten star,but does anyone here,remember him?
