we saw him perform in London, in the '70's. A wonderful evening of entertainment. So sad

Saw him in Branson a few years ago. Outstanding crooner and a very nice man. My wife's aunt was his piano teacher in Des Moines, Iowa in the 40s.

R.I.P. Andy.
One of the greatest voices I've ever heard. A very underrated singer in my humble opinion.
