Etwas Bio:
Dick Lee war ein populärer Sänger aus Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, der 1951 bei einer Talente-Show entdeckt wurde und eigentlich Richard Lee Beurer hieß. 1956 konnte er aufgrund seiner lokalen Popularität als Sänger in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, einen Nachtclub eröffnen, der bis 1992 bestand. Wegen seines blonden Haares erhielt er den Spitznamen "America's Golden Boy".

Normalerweise versuche ich mit Hilfe des Netzes die Disco soweit auszudehnen, damit ich die bereits im Thread vorhandenen Scans darin unterbringen kann. Die CAPITOL aus dem Jahre 1968, war mir aber dann doch etwas zu weit von dem Zeitraum meiner Interessen entfernt.
Für die Rocknroller gibt es auch noch einen Interpreten mit sehr ähnlichem Namen, nämlich Dickey Lee. Über ihn kann man
hier Einiges finden (links klicken).
