    A great voice, from a great era, sadly missed.

    Very sad to hear this. I bought three of The New Drifters records when they came out : 'There goes my baby', 'Dance with me' and 'On Broadway' (though by On Broadway, King had left). I also bought 'Stand by Me' which is the earliest of his solo songs I can remember. Without rooting about at the bottom of the wardrobe to check, I think I still have King's original single Stand by Me. I think There goes my Baby was the first record I heard which featured a fade-out ending.

    A classic sound, sorely missed.
