Just another shock, Rest in Peace Blue Lovet, You brought us so much joy in your Music, Condolences to Family, and rest of The Manhattans!
A friend of mine just called to tell me this and I am shocked beyond belief!
nysister, there's only one original still living that's Kenny Kelly.
3 "original" Manhattans all passed in the month of December:
SMITTY [[original lead) - Dec 16. 1970
BLUE - December 9, 2014
SONNY - Dec. 3, 2014
How ironic!

Blue's voice was iconic! His intro to "Let's Kiss and Say Goodbye".......man! He was one of a kind and will definitely be missed. Thanks Blue for the music and the memories. Rest in peace and God Bless.
