Hi Dottie---sorry, I have never heard of Kyle Gordon-what type of singer is he--I know you like Meatloaf, who is not really my scene--is Kyle Gordon similar. [But I have heard of Meatloaf] Marian

Hi Dottie, What or who is Seize The Night Kyle Gordon ?

Is it a male or female singer.

We've looked on the web but can't seem to find much to indicate.

Male singer

Seize the Night originates from the Broadway Musical Tanz der Vampire, or Dance of the Vampires starring Michael Crawford, with words and music by Jim Steinman......

The idea was taken from a film of Roman Polanski's The Vampires..

It opened on Broadway (don't quote me on this) at the Minskoff Theatre on October 18th 2002 and closed in January 2003... not a very long run, but wish I had had the opportunity to see it

The paying public just didn't seem to appreciate it......

I've been trying to download many other of the songs, but haven't been very successful - yet!

Listening to Peggy Lee's last album for EMI in 1972 innovatively titled Norma Deloris Egstrom From Jamestown.......

The last medley The More I See You/I'll Be Seeing You is touching.

For Father's Day, I listened to the Mills Brothers. Their songs still sound fresh---especially Be My Life's Companion, In A Mellow Tone, Opus One, Daddy's Little Girl, and Paper Doll.

They were one of the most popular groups in America. What about in Europe and Asia?

Have just been listening to "The best of the Walker Brothers" takes me back to when I was a teenager, (which I must admit is some time ago !!) I wonder does anyone know if they still record or perform anywhere.

This forum is absolutely brill, you learn and are able to share such interesting information, long may it continue.

Best regards to all

Hi Paul

Did they sing Mr Sandman?
Otherwise, I only know them from Glow Worm.

Yes, Terence, the Mills Brothers did record Mr Sandman. But I always associate that song with the Chordettes. I highly recommend you check out Be My Life's Companion, In A Mellow Tone, and Opus One by the Mills Brothers. They really swing!

Walker has a new album out now called The Drift - if your looking for a repeat of the Walker Brothers music, don't count on this album

Does anyone here like Dusty Springfield? I am listening to the boxset Simply Dusty. Disc 3 is particularly good with songs like What Are You Doing The Rest Of Your Life and Yesterday When I Was Young.

What Are You Doing The Rest Of Your Life would have been a perfect song for Matt Monro to record. In fact I wish he had recorded an album of Michel Legrand's songs. All will be masterpieces in his hands.
