Helmut Lotti My Tribute To The King Live Concert – by Patrick Ranasinghe Helmut Lotti (born Helmut Barthold Johannes Alma Lotigiers; 22 October 1969), is a Belgian tenor and singer-songwriter. Lotti performs in several styles and languages. Once an Elvis impersonator, he has sung African and Latino and Jewish music hit records, and he crossed over into classical music in the 1990s. The son of Luc and Rita (née Lagrou), Helmut Barthold Johannes Alma Lotigiers was born in Ghent, Belgium, and began his singing career with a visual and singing style in an obvious imitation of Elvis Presley, and was described as “De Nieuwe Elvis” (in Dutch) or “The New Elvis”.

After a few more albums, he changed direction in 1995 with the first of what became a long ...

SOMETHIN’ STUPID (Nancy & Frank Sinatra) – by Des Kelly Never have we received anything, pertaining to this particular “title” from Keith Bennett, before this, and, as such, I have decided that this most intriguing story of old Frankie and his Nancy with the laughing face, as he liked to describe his daughter, was fully worth the publicity that e’Lanka offers for perusal by it’s Members & readers. I take this chance to thank Keith Bennett very much, for all these interesting tidbits he sends out to us from time to time, this time, we will evenaccept even “Somethin Stupid”. ...

“MY WAY” ANKA-SINATRA STORY IN SONG – Des Kelly There could never be anyone but “The Voice” as he was called, to sing such a superb song. “My Way” might well be the epitome of life itself, as the lyrics suggest, and e’Lanka is very grateful for the story of it’s making to come to us via our good contributors in both Chris. Lawton and Keith Bennett, both of whom we thank.. Paul Anka, now in his eighties, is still thankfully with us, while Frank Sinatra has hit the “higher-stage” just a few years ago. As I’ve been both a musician/songwriter & Entertainer since around 1942 myself, I could think of none better than Frank Sinatra as the very BEST male Vocalist in the “Pop-music” culture ever, and although he was quite a good Vocalist himself, I am certain that Paul Anka, the Songwriter, would agree that NO-ONE, including himself ...

Trini Lopez Live In Concert Brussels 1964 – By Patrick Ranasinghe Trini Lopez Live In Concert Brussels 1964 In loving memories to Trinidad Lopez III 1937 – 2020 Born 1937 in Dallas, Texas, his parents were both from Mexico. Lopez started playing in bands at 15 and in 1958, his group the Big Beats signed with Columbia Records after recording with Buddy Holly producer Norman Petty. Lopez went solo shortly afterward and signed with King Records, for whom he released a series of unsuccessful singles before leaving the label in 1962. He soon scored a residency at the Los Angeles nightclub PJ’s, where Frank Sinatra saw his show and signed him to his Reprise Records in 1963. That year, his debut album, “Trini Lopez at PJ’s,” included a cover of “If I Had a Hammer” that was a global smash, topping the charts in multiple countries and reaching No. 3 ...
