Making it on the charts with four different groups in the same year....

Happy 69th birthday to Tony Burrows!!

In 1970, Tony was one busy man having sung on four different songs, with four different groups and all of them making the charts. In fact he was the only person to sing on BBC's "Top of the Pops" three times, with three different groups. His distinctive voice is still heard as oldies stations play a couple of the songs often. Let's run down the list.....there was The Brotherhood of Man (Jan.), Edison Lighthouse (Feb.), White Plains (March), and The Pipkins (April). All four are included here for your listening pleasure. Burrows was seen on the US charts one more time in 1974...and quite a song it was....I've put it on at the end just for fun....
