Born in Waterford, Ireland, this successful singer-songwriter came into
his own in the early 70s with the hit single "Nothing Rhymed". At his
peak, he scored notable international chart-toppers such as "Alone
Again (Naturally)", "Clair" and "Get Down". Shared manager with stable
mates Tom Jones,
Engelbert Humperdinck
and Lynsey de Paul (in many ways his
female counterpart).
In 1975, his run of successes was interrupted and legal wrangles followed. Briefly resurfaced in 1980 with the U.K. hit "What's in a Kiss?" (#19) and, more recently in 1990, with "So What" (U.K. #70).
