Eddie Holman "I am the King of Falsetto, there never has been and never will be another". "I can still hit those trademark high notes". He did - his vocal powers are as good as they ever were.......

Thanks S.S., but the credit for all the photos goes to my wife who had to contend with bobbing heads, people constantly passing by carrying huge piles of loaded nachos!!!, bumping and jostling, less than ideal lighting, and moving subjects, but she did it with a smile

I will post some video, again shot under very poor conditions, but I like to give the artists as much exposure and encouragement as possible, and I know the SDF community loves these great performers who keep the traditions alive.

Your wife did a great job, Mike.
And it's a lot of work posting photo's on here too!!
I can appreciate it.

Glad the man's still active.
I'd be VERY disappointed however if this weren't performed although I guess it'd likely be appreciated by a very select few.

Hi Mike...Hope all's well with you. Eddie Holman...what a classic and classy artist. Green with envy lol.

**MIKEW-UK** · 02-11-2013, 03:04 PM

Hey, Stu, Eddie carries himself with great dignity and panache and he really puts on a great show!!!!!

I can't get my youtube to work yet so I don't know if this was posted: This Can't Be True. That was the joint at all the house parties back in the day. I can hear someone say, "back it up!" Glad to see him still out there.

NYSister: We used to say, "Clean as the Board of Health!"

Even though I can't listen, I encourage everyone whose not familiar with this song to give it a whirl. I'm sure you'll like it and will understand why it was a house party favorite. Oh, those right side of the head nappy-headed days.

Nosey,
Back in 1967 I wore out "This Can't Be True" on the jukebox, always been my favorite Eddie Holman tune.

Soul Sister, if I'm not mistaken, I think the Tymes or the Dreamlovers may have been the background singers on that record. Speaking of the Dreamlovers, someone should start a thread on them. "When We Get Married" was the wedding song back then.
