Clip of the day, September 20th, 2008 -Crispian St. Peters - You Were On My Mind

Not the best mimer in the business, Crispian is featured here on Australian tv.

He was born with a more humble handle - Robin Peter Smith on April 5 1939, at Swanley, Kent, and although Wikipedia tells us he is best known for his 1966 hit, "The Pied Piper" I reckon this was his best one.

As a young man, St. Peters performed in several relatively unknown bands in England. In 1956, he gave his first live performance, as a member of The Hard Travellers. Through the late 1950s and early 1960s, he was a member of The Country Gentlemen, Beat Formula Three, and Peter & The Wolves. In 1964, as a member of Peter & The Wolves, St. Peters made his first commercial recording.

Rather sadly on 1 January 1995, at the age of 56, he suffered a major stroke. His music career was severely weakened by this, and in 2001, he announced his retirement from the music industry. He has been hospitalized several times with pneumonia since 2003.
