RIP Jimmy. I echo LT's eulogy.

Obviously I don't know a great deal about him but he seems to have been quite a hitmaker in the charts in the 1950s, being the first singer to score a number one with 'Unchained Melody'.
I also have him duetting with a young Petula Clark singing a really cute song called 'Mariandl'.

Sad news,clearly a legend of music and as a DJ.
