Sad news about Richard Sherman....He also wrote that great Pop record for Johnny Burnett in 1960 called You're Sixteen and I am one of the few people on here that remembers it

Now don't try and kid me Man Cub
That happens to be true.
It didn't reach the top
Number 8 it stopped
But that's not bothering me.
I wanna hear more of these records.
The very best in town.
Its my desire.
Forget Red Fire.
I'm tired of Monkeyin' around

A point for me, as Sherman gets his obit. in the latest Private Eye.
And farewell also to singer Colin Gibb, of Black Lace.

All together now, "Agadoo-doo-doo....."
