Re: interesting 'pop' Music obituary
SJ, the 50's Platters may be before your time but, like the Drifters, the group had a whole new lease of life in the 60's when they reinvented themselves as a Detriot-style soul group, still with two of the original members, Herb Reed and David Lynch. Surely, you must remember dancing to "With This Ring", "Washed Ashore (On A Lonely Island In The Sea)" and "I Love You 1,000 Times" - all mod club dancefloor favourites in the late '60's.

Re: interesting 'pop' Music obituary
I remember some of their songs but I think I remember them as 'golden oldies' rather than as current hits. RIP Zola.
