Just read in the news that Ernie Sigley passed on 15 August peacefully.  He had been suffering from Alzheimers for several years - RIP Ernie ..
Another day - another song.

 :( :vsad: So prominent in his heyday then he faded from view so I'm not sure if this a shock or unexpected RIP Ernie.

One of the earliest people to grace the (then) Top 100 pop charts - "Love Is A Golden Ring" (a Frankie Laine cover) was a very early W&G 45rpm release (c. 1957). Had a few low flying 45rpm on RCA - finally 'almost made it' and had a Top 40 charter with the "Hey Paula" duet With Denise Drysdale in the mid 70s .  I'll show my age, but the latter evolved from the Tonight Show (shown in Sydney as well as Melbourne) that had the 1950s/1960s as the theme - a show I actually saw!!!
