Well there's a name I think I recall for a cover of "Girl of my best friend". To be honest I had completely forgotten about him. A very old mate of mine had it - his father was in the Merchant Navy and brought a copy over to England. My mate amassed a great collection from over the pond in the late 50's/early '60s courtesy of his old man.
I was a big fan of Billy Fury who also had a touch of Elvis in his singing voice.
Thanks for reminding me of RD.
