Hallo,
interessanter Interpret, aufbauend auf Wikipedia:
Georgie Shaw (born George Shoester) was an American popular musician in Philadelphia/Pennsylvania. He graduated South Philadelphia High School in 1947. He released four Top singles in the U.S. in the 1950s, all on Decca Records.
“Till We Two Are One“ (Decca 9-28937) was his biggest hit, reaching # 7 in 1954. That same year “Someone Else's Love Song“ (Decca 9-29160) reached # 29.
He recorded a song called “Let Me Go, Devil“, which was about alcoholism. It was later rewritten as “Let Me Go, Lover!“ - siehe auch Gerds Cover-Liste.
Another song that he originally recorded which became a hit later, when recorded by another singer was “Honeycomb“ (Jimmie Rodgers), written by Bob Merrill - siehe auch Gerds Cover-Liste. Jimmy Leyden and his orchestra and chorus accompanied Georgie on those two recordings.
“No Arms Can Ever Hold You (Like These Arms of Mine)“ (Decca 29679) hit # 23 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1955, and “Go On With The Wedding“ (Decca 29776), featuring Kitty Kallen, hit # 39 in 1956. Jack Pleis led the orchestra behind the last two recordings.
Mit “I Want You All To Myself (Just You)“ landete Kitty Kallen 1954 einen 3. Volltreffer. 1955 mußte sie sich wie viele arrivierte Stars der Rock’n’Roll-Welle erwehren, hatte aber dennoch Anfang 1956 zusammen mit Georgie Shaw mit “Go On With The Wedding“ (Decca 29776) einen weiteren Chart-Erfolg (# 39), in Konkurrenz zu Patti Page auf # 11.
Mit “To You, My Love“ (Decca 29839) konnte Georgie 1956 einen letzten Charts-Erfolg auf # 70 verbuchen.
Georgie Shaw died on September 1, 2006 in Philadelphia. due to heart disease.
