VAL DOONICAN "ep" 1964
Irish crooner/traditional folk singer and occasional pop singer who also hosted and starred in a series of 'variety shows' on stage and tv in the UK...
four tracks on this 'ep'...
all of which have the same jovial/lightheartedness of your typical Burl Ives tunes like "goober peas" etc....you get the idea,right?
tracks are okay on a first up listen, but i think they would grow old really fast with repeatative listens
i cant find where this 'ep' charted in the UK
anyway, here's Val's Wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Val_Doonican
