Lovely to hear from another HUGE Gene Pitney fan. Here in New Zealand we have a fairly new radio station called Magic which regularly plays Gene's recordings. I'm pleased to say that I regularly bombard them with requests (always for gene Pitney, of course) but am even more pleased to say that they often play these requests. So great to hear his music on the airwaves again.

Maxine, Gene is my favorite solo singer of all time. His delivery was magnificent. I heard "I gonna be Strong" when I was 11 and I was forever hooked. Have you checked out his songs in Italian? He was so much different on European TV as far as stage presence. He was obviously enjoying himself. Gene was always so serious on American TV. In 1960 when he sang " The Man who Shot Liberty Valance" at the Academy Awards he was so nervous bc he had to walk down a flight of stairs while singing. He wasn't worried about the singing part but he was terrified he'd fall and everyone in his hometown would see it lol Oddly in the movie they used the instrumental version not the lyric one. Didn't matter bc it was a big hit for Pitney. He also recorded country songs with George Jones. He wrote He's a Rebel which I think made it to number one by the Crystals. Hello Mary Lou which was a big bit for Ricky Nelson and Rubber Ball which was a hit for Bobby Vee. Then there was Something's Gotten Hold of my Heart which was a big hit ( again) with Marc Almond. I was floored to hear of his passing and hard to believe he's gone a decade. My biggest regret is never having seen him in concert. He had a one of a kind voice and seemed to be a genuinely nice person.:o)

Like yourself I became a fan from the first time I heard Gene sing. I bought many of his records which sadly I had to give away when I left New Zealand for ten years. Thankfully I did see Gene at a show in Christchurch (NZ) but a busy life did not allow me to enjoy my music interests. KZitem has brought those wonderful Gene Pitney moments back to me. Yes, I certainly have checked out his singing in Italian and every interview I can find and his Concert Show from 2000 and anything and everything else I can find. I enjoy listening to any good music but find I always come back to Gene Pitney. There is no-one like him. I never tire of listening to his recordings and I often listen for several hours. My favourite would be "Every Breath I Take" closely followed by "Something's Gotten Hold of My Heart", "Half Heaven, Half Heartache", "Tower Tall", closely followed by several others. Love his country and Italian songs. Think you could say I'm a HUGE fan. Many close to Gene confirm that he was, indeed, a person they were proud to know. Interested to hear what you think of "Trans Canada Highway".

I am a die hard Pitney fan and have been for 40 years. But JB is not the measure of today's quality of music. There are many excellent musicians/singers there...just to name a few. Hozier, Moby, Damien Rice, The Sharpes, Goete and so many more. You just have to find them, they are not the superstars, but they offer up a rival to these great oldies, and my beloved era.
