Do any of you remember Tony Orlandos' "Bless You" and "Half Way To Paradise" from the early 60's???

Hmm,no...the earliest recollection I have of Tony would be "Knock Three Times". This song still makes us laugh at our house...my wife was pregnant with our oldest and would awake every morning with the hated Morning Sickness....sure nuff...Tony would be on the radio!

We went to one of his shows a couple of years ago and he performed all of his Dawn hits. Everyone asked him to do "Bless You" and he finally did and explained how that was a dark time of his life. I on the other hand have great memories of those days. Walking home from Herman Ridder hand in hand with my boyfriend on a snow blown day and stopping the pizza place near the Dover on 174th st. we hear that song for the first time. Joe started singing it to me. WOW powerful! He later bought me the 45 and it became our song. Tony was in his late teens then and very fat when he appeared on Dick Clarks Bandstand. After Half way to Paridise there was nothing until Dawn.

What's your problem Duke! Not political enough for you.
