Barry Young "Show Me the Way"

Barry Young was a pop singer who at times sounded more like Dean Martin than Dean Martin sounded like Dean Martin! That was evident on his top 20 hit "One Has My Name" which charted from November 1965 through early January 1966. Barry Young sounds even more like the rat pack crooner on the B side of the Dot 45, "Show Me the Way." Listen and see if you agree. By the way, if you share my philosophy, "never grow up, never grow old," come on over to my blog, Shady Dell Music & Memories at www.shadydell.blogspot.com. See you there!

I like this side better than the popular A side. Barry channels Dean perfectly on this one! Thanks for your comment!

I've never heard the song before, but I agree he sounds exactly like Dean Martin. Nice post.

Close your eyes and you can picture the stool, the drink, the cigarette and Dean! Thanks for your comment!
