An unheard version of this beautiful song; sung by Coos Velders aka Lester mcCartney from the Netherlands who visited the USA in the eighties where he met Tom Jones and Tom Parker. Parker recognised the tremendous skills and talent of Coos and wanted to do 'something' with him but Coos got homesick and went back home where he became 'forgotten'.

At the moment he's 'nursing' my brother a bit who - in return - puts regurarley some footage of Coos on YouTube. I ripped this one off of willem's channel just to support both his channel and the remarkeble voice Coos is gifted with. I'll give here all the credits to my brother Willem who 'saved' this beautifull voice from obscurity.

At the moment there are some negotiations goin' on for having him back to the States for a couple of gigs.

See also the channel of PALAPALA10 on this medium. She invited Coos in 1983 to the States.

I never do this kind of promotions but this voice realy needs to be heard.

  • amazing voice, beautiful version, i m glad that i came to hear him, ty perothing.

  • @truty122 Thanks! Yes he has! More footage on my dutch "garbage"or dump channel. Type above- and search for, "Gouden strot. Coos Velders". There he sang for fun at my birtdayparty. No gear or made up, just his raw voice without any high tech.

  • Poor ending, but very good try, You beat Bono.

  • @axle5431 nobody is perfect but thanks

  • @perothing Coos viste vroegen veel meer als dat ie zong vaak moest hij van zijn visstek worden gehaald omdat hij vissen belangrijker vond dan optreden Ha Ha die Coos Groeten van Harry Bouwknegt voormalige buurjongen Overdinkel
