    I was 6, I don't remember many singers although I do remember the tunes. I listen to loads from that era on utube but I've never come across any of his music !

    For some reason I thought he was American but in fact he was born in Everton in 1932 and died 2008!

Russ is one of the many forgotten pop stars of the 50's and 60's;Johnny Gentle,Terry Dene,Emil Ford,Craig Douglas et al. Where are they now?

    Like I've said,I'd never heard of him,but his achievement merits an inclusion,I think! Nowt to do with personal taste,which I thought was obvious!?

    Quite right Steve. As soon as there is a Hall of Fwame, he should be in it.

    Well I thought he was ok, not just me cup of tea but he did ok to have hits at that time both here and the US. Popular music didn't just start in the in the 70s and leave the poor chap alone, I'm surprised at you Oudies and Zap!
