Durham Town - Jäähyväiset

Robin had a small hit with the "Jäähyväiset" (Goodbyes) released as a single in 1970. The orginal was written and performed by British Roger Whittaker (born in Kenya). He is best known for his baritone singing voice and trademark whistling ability. This "Durham Town" became Whittaker's first Top 20 hit in Britain in the spring of 1970.

Kiva löytää tämäkin versio täältä, Whittakerin musiikista tykänneenä. Tiesitkös, että Tapsa Heinonen on levyttänyt tämän myös, nimellä Nyt jätän vanhan Turun, Vaeltaja- LP:lleen vuonna 1976?
