Sorry Robert and John I obviously phrased the question wrongly :roll:
I should have quoted from Micheles book on page 168.
re Londons 'Talk Of The Town' in Leicester Square-'he was one of only two artists(the other being Frankie Vaughan) who performed there a record breaking ten times' :(

Yet, in the book with 4 disc Singers Singer set i'm sure it says Tony Bennett :| so let's say we are both right, as there could have been a misprint somewhere :wink:
"My Tears Will Fall Now That You're Gone,
I Can't Help But Cry, But I Must Go On" :(
