Name Of Soul Singer

[feelap]

Hi,

I saw a singer on an old episode of Jools Holland and have forgotten his name. Description:

-black American male
-very old, 70+ years old
-singing soulmusic with an unusually high falsetto voice, I actually thought it was a woman singing
-wearing a tuxedo, standing next to Jools Holland who was playing piano
-he looked quite small in size and I think his name is 'Little.....(something)'

Any ideas? Thanks a lot

Could have been Donny Elbert.

Doubt it Tony,he died in 1989.

I think the Builder has pretty much nailed it. That said I've been on threads like this before....the answer good be Annie Lennox.

[tonyav]

Did he, thanks Mamya.

[Mamyalynne]

We'll see.

[-Talbot-]

good?

Could

How did that happen?

What's going on with all these links vanishing tonight?

[Mamyalynne]

Are the links on page 1 not working for you?

[Baldric]

No, just getting exclamation mark in a circle where link should be, happened to one I put on earlier on 'rabbit' thread as well

[Mamyalynne]

Odd,I don't know the answer I'm afraid.

I hope feelap got his answer but ever since I saw this thread I've been wracking my brains trying to remember a soul group from my youth that had a lead singer with a very high voice. It's been driving me crazy and after looking at loads of chart lists over the early 70s I've finally remembered it - The Stylistics, lead singer Russell Thompkins. Know it's not the answer but I can breathe a sigh of relief.
