John Gary - Sings Especially for You '1967

Tracks list

A pleasing vocalist with a warm delivery reminiscent of Andy Williams or Tony
Bennett, John Gary unfortunately came along just at the beginning of the British
Invasion and never managed to make much of an impression on the adult vocal
audience. Born in 1932 in Watertown, New York, he was a singer on Don McNeills
radio show Breakfast Club before signing a contract with RCA Records in 1962.
Though only one single charted on the U.S. pop charts -- the Top 100 Soon Ill
Wed My Love in 1964 -- John Gary did reach the Top 20 with mid-60s LPs such as
The Nearness of You, Encore, and A Little Bit of Heaven, and fared even better
on the easy listening charts (with albums including the number one Cold) and
Cash Box, where Gary albums hit the Top Ten twice. He also covered a wide
repertoire for the time, from show tunes to country hits and romantic ballads --
though, remarkably, very few of the novelty pop songs which dragged down fellow
vocalists. Gary died January 4, 1998.
