Keeping it with the Platters I feel the same way about 'My Prayer'.
Sonny Turner singing lead on 'Washed Ashore...?
Thanks west.

While we're on the subject,are any of the platters still alive?
I think Sonny Turner is still alive, and also Gaynel Hodge from the original line-up is still alive and still working [[?)....
Sonny Turner lives here in Vegas. In 1966 when he recorded with The Platters for Musicor he changed the sound to a more soul genre style of the day.
Tony Williams was a fabulous singer in more the jazz & pop vain.
Love them both, especially Tony whom Paul Robi says loved and thought he was Jimmy Scott! Gotta love that!!! ;)
