Description
American vocalists initially domineered the British Record Chart in the early '50s, this was until around 1953 when suddenly the United Kingdom was in vogue! One of the most successful British vocalists of that time was the man in question, David Whitfield.
With 20 hit records by 1960, 19 of which are on disc one of this set, including: "Rags to Riches", "The Bridge of Sighs", the first release of the single version of "Mama" and his two Number 1's "Cara Mia" and "Answer Me".
The second disc of this set features many of David Whitfield's B sides and tracks new to CD.
It's hard to believe that 30 years have passed since we lost David Whitfield yet his popularity has been maintained over all those years and we feel sure that with this collection it will continue to do so.
