He is oldies, all right, but I saw him in concert about 2 years ag and he makes a great connection with his audience, and is an awesome performer, and still sexy as shit. Loved him. I want to adopt him to be my uncle. LOL! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EVt8y8OtZTA"]Lou Christie & Lesley Gore - Medley Since I Don't Have You - YouTube

I'm gonna make you mine has been stuck in my head since I saw this thread. On a completely different subject we went and saw Styx last month. Highly. Recommend to go see.
Now it's stuck in my head. lol Glad to hear Styx put on a good show. I wish they had come to Canada on this tour.
Oh god. My parents made me go with them to an oldies nostalgia concert when I was a kid and Lou Christie was one of the performers. I honestly don't remember what he sounds like. (I love oldies now, but back then I'm sure I kept my hands clamped over my ears as tightly as I could.) My mom still has a cassette of his songs that she bought at the concert, but alas, no tape player. YouTube it is!
