Dieter hat die Kurz-Bio für Lew Douglas bereits abgeliefert, also bleibt für mich noch die Single-Disco.
Bei einem Orchesterleiter, der eine Menge Interpreten bei einer Vielzahl von Labels begleitet hat ist es schwer eine Disco mit allen Singles wo er in irgendeiner Form beteiligt war zu erstellen. Ich habe mich daher entschlossen nur seine Instrumental-Singles und nur jene Vokal-Singles, wo er als Haupt-Interpret auf dem Label aufscheint, zu erfassen.
Die Singles:
