How could this man not be considered one of the top ten greatest entertainers of all time? Gene is responsible for so many amazing songs. And what a vocal range!

He wrote his hit songs, as well as other pop stars & semi-country records. Tremendous talent, who seems well grounded & skilled within lyrics. Not a flashy guy --- reminds me of B.J. THOMAS. Calm, smooth performance.

I saw Gene Pitney at Foxwoods in Connecticut and he sounded like he did when I was a kid. I grew up listening to him and singing along with him wishing I really was singing with him. He was a real gentleman, family man and so appreciative of his fans. I miss him to this day and always will. Why God took him I will never understand. Thank you for putting these songs together. You gave an old lady a lot of joy.

Ahhhh what a legend!! He sang about love, heartache & teen angst. Another great performer lost waaaay too soon. Gene Pitney and Roy Orbison.........absolute legends of the '60's. They sang our "Feelings" and tugged at our heart strings.

Live - WOW! Of all Gene's really great hits I especially love his delivery of the Bachrach/David song, "Only Love Can Break A Heart"-- it's so very timeless. It would have been his only Billboard No. 1 hit but was held back at No. 2 by the Crystal's delivery of "He's A Rebel", a song written by Gene himself. I also think "Last Exit To Brooklyn" was a very exciting song by Gene and wish it had charted much higher than it did. It still excites me to this very day, and I just got to sing along.
