George Hamilton the IV (fourth) had a hit at age 19 in 1956 with,"A <a href="http://www.ntsearch.com/search.php?q=Rose&v=56">Rose</a> and A <a href="http://www.ntsearch.com/search.php?q=Baby&v=56">Baby</a> Ruth" (yes,the candy bar!) Nice song but a bit sappy!

He also teamed up with Paul Anka & Johnny nash in '58 for,"The Teen Commandments" a musical lecture for teen-agers! x2!
He had a few more hits until 1963,then of course...came the Beatles! Overall,I'd say he's better than Englebert! Now i've got to find that Lightfoot Country Lp!

B, it's up for sale here:
