I don’t remember that song, but I do remember that he had a great voice.
He certainly had a very unique voice.
I have a CD of his hits and “It Hurts To Be In Love” is my favorite of his many great songs. The drum riffs sound very “Hal Blaine-ish” but the song was recorded in NY so a local drummer was probably used.
