| Engelbert Humperdinck News: |
| In the mid-'60s when the hit "It's Not Unusual" conquered the charts, an unusual corner was being turned in the States. For the young, a British invasion was already underway with groups like the Beatles and Gerry & the Pacemakers among others leading the troops. But the more insidious incursion claimed victory over the more mature demographic. It seemed that no big-haired secretary or working-class stiff was able to escape the lounge-style, emotional strains of Tom Jones and soon after, Engelbert Humperdinck, as older audiences day-dreamed. |
