He had one of the purest voices of the doo wop era, & still sounded fantastic into his 60's. Check out some of his clips on You Tube.
God Bless his family & friends. We will miss that voice forever.

Live365 Webcaster needs a helping hand

Alan McCall is a long-time fellow Live365 Webcaster. Like most Live365'ers, we pay the costs to do it because we love what we do. Alan happens to be darned good at it too. But, he's a bit underfunded both Online & Offline. Check out how we can help Alan out in his time of need:
 

If you can help Alan out, I'd be most grateful. He's Good People.
