Sadly passed away the 18th of this month. I have Memories of his distinct voice and style.

"I remember" him

I was going to do the "I remember Him" joke as well... Never mind. He would have loved the irony of being sent to Coventry!
My late parents had at least three Ifield singles in their collection of 1960s records - the Yodeling Song; I Remember You; and The Wayward Wind (this collection had none at all from the Beatles, amazingly). I know that he was featured on one of those "After They Were Famous" documentaries in around 2001 where they said that he was in Australia. Although The Yodelling Song was made in the 1960s, but it didn't chart unbelieveably until 1991!
Did he yodel on every one of his hits, I wonder? Most of them sound like he did.I've everything I need to keep me satisfied
There's nothing you can do to make me change my mind
I'm having so much fun
My lucky number's one
Ah! Oh! Ah! Oh!Comment

I am not sure I recall Frank passing on - as I don't always buy a Newspaper or read the News and I get really annoyed at Notifications on the net appearing all day blocking my page I am viewing. Regardless
I am very sorry to know of Frank's passing - he was the Man who invented Modern Music that had catchy tunes un-like 40s and 50s and Brass Band/Jazz eras, like in the 60s in my opinion and all the others like Tom Jones and Dusty Springfield RIP followed to make it the decade of Music it so memorably is remembered and loved as so for in-particular Frank's very up-beat (for the time) I Remember You - which I think all Music lovers of that era will Remember Frank for!
RIP Frank Ifield
