So sorry. Just yesterday I happened to be watching his amazing dance from Bye Bye Birdie on YouTube - “Got a Lot of Living To Do”.

He was the best singer for Volare. Such a happy song.

I’m getting too old. I remember him back in my youth.

RIP, sir.

Hugo Peabody, the undertaker’s son, who gets the girl, Kim McAfee (the delicious Ann-Margret) at the end of Bye Bye Birdie. He played the part to perfection.

The authors of Grease named the high school (play and movie) Rydell High in honour of him.

He was also the inspiration for the name of the high school in “Grease ( 1 and 2 ).”

I feel sad. The old legends are passing on. I’ve been streaming his music via Amazon Prime.

Wow, he was alive?

Never heard of Wildwood Days, but definitely Wild One and Volare (an English cover).

Too bad this missed the ‘50s song tournament this year!

Way too young.

This was a great song of his: Sway

He also acted on a good episode of "Combat!"
