There you go, big hitter, Van Morrison, birthday article in the Belfast Telegraph:

Yes, this was a hit for Tommy Edwards; a friend liked this song, I told him it was an oldie from the '50s, he did not know that.
Again, one song understates the case.

I bought his album, adore the "Sentimental Lady" song... he played with Fleetwood Mac, I believe his life ended tragically, nonetheless, Bob Welch:

It's rotten that he got snubbed by the R&R HoF and not included in the Fleetwood Mac induction.
