Few people realize that it was Humperdinck, not Elvis, who made famous the sideburns and flamboyant leather jumpsuits. He has been a legend in the international music industry for the last forty plus years, withover 150 million records sold, with hits such as “(Please) Release Me”, “After The Lovin”, “Spanish Eyes”, “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” and the unforgetable “Quando, Quando ,Quando”. Several of the major forces in the world of rock n’ roll, including Jimi Hendrix and The Carpenters, started out as opening acts for Humperdinck in the late’60’s, 70’s and ’80’s.
Romance serves as the core of Engelbert Humperdinck’s music and lasting success. He knows how to pick songs with eternal themes of romance and longing. Engelbert recently recorded his first duets CD Engelbert Calling, with a who’s who of the music world, including Sir Elton John, Willie Nelson, Johnny Mathis, Cliff Richard, Dionne Warwick, Kenny Rogers and Gene Simmons, to name a few.
Jeff,
Saw a recent picture and the man looks every bit of his 79 years.
