When Ral sang Run Little Linda he sounded nothing like Elvis. He was an excellent singer in his own right. Check this out: Ral Donner's version of That's Alright With Me and Ray Smith's version sound like the same artist singing both songs! Yes; I know they were two different people, and both are unfortunately deceased, but the likeness in the voices is AMAZING! One more thing: Ral could sound like Dion as well as Elvis, and Ray could sound like Dean Martin when it called for it! Joe

I've just been glancing through various artists on here, and I heard this guy for the first time. I thought I knew most of the artists of this era, but have never heard of Ral Donner, nor in fact Jack Scott either. Where have I been? Obviously these artists are virtually unknown in the Uk, which is so sad. I think Ral is great, and from the first song I heard, I knew this guy has loads of talent. Moreover he is extremely consistant. Thank you for introducing me to his talent.

Couldyou oat least given this poor guy who sounded like Elvis his own video without the ghost of Elvis following him on this also

No, but neither was Conway Twitty who was either blessed or cursed by sounding a bit like Elvis yet there is room to appreciate all these great if similar voices, just gives one more to like, it need not be a contest.

This song and the video get 10-stars out of 5.. This song and So Close To Heaven are, for this old greaser, as good as it gets. Thanks Doug I truly enjoy the music.
