Val Doonican Dies
Many of us Brits in my age group must remember Val during his televised series of the sixties and seventies.
He filled a niche amongst many other entertainment qualities singing songs many others never did. Paddy McGinty's Goat for example: RIP Val http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-33363938

Found out about Val Doonican during the Beatlemania years in the mid-60s. I heard his songs on a radio show here in Los Angeles hosted by a Brit ex-pat named Brian Clewer. His show, "The Cynics Choice", featured British songs and comedy. Val Doonican figured prominently on the show and I very much enjoyed his work. His passing is sad, indeed, and marks the further passing of an era...
RIP, Mr. Doonican, thanks for the joy... <O>
