    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! :)

    Lou is from Pittsburgh. Here is his first recordings on the Pittsburgh Robbee label. The Gypsy Cried first broke in Pittsburgh then went national.

    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.

    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!
