Gene Pitney RIP


We lost a great singer from the 60's with the death of Gene Pitney Wednesday in Cardiff, Wales. He was 65. He had a unique voice, and no covers of his songs ever came close to Gene's version. In homage to him let's list our favorite Pitney memories/songs. I'll get it started with one of his lessor known songs "Half Heaven, Half Heartache". What memories/songs will you associate with him?

True Love Never Runs Smooth, my fav, also I'm Gonna Be Strong, Last Chance To Turn Around, Looking Through the Eyes OF Love, Backstage[I'm Lonely] and Only Love Can Break a Heart....A style all his own....some of these songs just don't "sound" right sung by someone else...IMO...there are still other singles and songs he wrote for others...quite the talent...
