And this is from the States! We love him here! The DJs always got requests for "You Drive Me Crazy" back in the 80s. He was playing in every bar I worked in - as well as went to. That's a lotta bars!

Amazing, still singing after 54 years, started way back in 1969 as Shakin Stevens and the Sunsets, Played Elvis in the West End tribute musical "Elvis" in 1977, then went on to even greater success in the 1980s and early 1990s.

[@BlooMKunKy]

I was brought up on Elvis, Cash, Marty Robbins, Jim Reeves in the early 80s cos it was my Dads vinyl. Shaky came along and i was in utter awe, he was on top of the pops doing the same. I'm Welsh and of course at that time I didn't know he was Welsh. Proper star in my eyes from a very young age. I used to try and impersonate him as a show for my parents and went up on my toes for a split second. oh the happy days

[@Andione.]

Loved (Michael barratt) aka shaky growing up in the 80s. Awesome memories of my childhood ❤️ still got the album shaky & the singles green door & you drive me crazy & this ole house. Timeless classics that will never grow old.

Hey there's a whole bunch of us across the pond who love Shaky! Still love him! At least in NJ. Someone played him for my friend - she played him for me and then we just passed his stuff around to everyone we knew. Back then the local bars had live music almost every night with a DJ playing when the band took a break. You Drive Me Crazy was played constantly. Stephen King even mentions him in one of his books. Believe me he has fans here. I definitely agree with everyone else - what rocket scientist had these 2 ding dogs interview him? Lovely man - real class. I'm glad he's still making music.

There's a track on the new album called, "May." That's about his mother. It must've brought a lot of repressed feelings to the surface, a lot of sad memories and the reminder that she is no longer here. It's a beautiful song but I can imagine how difficult it must've been for him.
