Don Gant aka Neon Philharmonic - Sad Eyes ( Roy Orbison Co:Writer )

Don Gant is 1 of my FAVORITES! I sware he an Orbison shared the same backup group! Listen to it! Don was also lead singer with Neon Philharmonic. Don unfortunately passed away in 1987.

You can detect a little of Roy in his vocals.

I sware they all used the same background vocals & band, Gant, Jenson, Folger, Melson & Orbison. Also, check out Mark Dinning-Suddenly, let me know what you think, all the same style.

Kris Jenson had some good songs also.

Guess I'll have to post some Kris Jenson. I did or perhaps still have the Torture LP, if not I still have plenty 45s.

Don Gant was one of my favorites also.........Same style as Orbison, Melson and Folger.

Aaaahhhhh...this is so good! I love everything on the Colpix label to start with! Yes, you can hear the Roy Orbison undertones too! Love this "dreamy" song!!! Thanks Richard for another dowopper51 dreamy gem!

I just wanted to add that I think maybe Kris Jenson was involved a bit. I have plenty of Jenson doing some of the same songs? Just room for thought!

I agree, I love this guy! More of Gant, Melson and Folger coming at you soon!
