Raymond Froggatt At Cheap Price

Raymond William Froggatt (also known as “Froggy”) was born in Bordesley Green, Birmingham, UK on 13 November 1941, and is a British songwriter and singer. Raymond Froggatt began performing rock and roll in the early 1960′s and soon gained a reputation for his well-crafted songs and exciting live performances. Raymond Froggatt’s own version of the song, under the title “Callow la Vita”, reached #3 in the Netherlands. Another Froggy song, “Big Ship”, was a #8 hit for Cliff Richard in 1969.
Around 40 years ago he teamed up with guitarist Hartley Cain, bassist Louis Clark and drummer Len Ablethorpe to form the Raymond Froggatt band. Before long he managed to get a gig in Wolverhampton, and the city has held a special place in is heart ever since. “This was the only place, at the start, where we could go out and feel like we were somebody good,” he told me years later.

Whenever Black Country rock fans discuss favourites who inexplicably failed to hit the big time, it’s not long before Froggy gets a mention. He had tremendous charisma, all his own hair and teeth, legions of faithful fans, great backing musicians, a splendid singing voice, and drew full houses all over the country.

The Dave Clark Five had a Top 10 hit with Red Balloon, and Froggy songs have sold in their millions for Cliff Richard, Leon Russell, Gladys Knight, The Byrds and a French film star called Mari Lafforette, plus top American country music stars including George Hamilton IV.

Maybe he didn’t have the pop star look of the day as a young ‘un, resembling, with his black hair and beard, and powerful build, the wicked woodcutter from Snow White rather than the prince with the revivifying kiss, but then Ken Dodd’s no oil painting, and he churned out a hit or three.

What’s more Froggy grew into his looks over the years and still looks good today. Not getting a hit must still be galling for the band, but there are many pop stars from the sixties no?one can remember, whereas there are thousands who’ll never forget Froggy, including many a married couple who met at one of his gigs and went a?wooing at his later shows. Raymond William Froggatt gained his taste for the spotlight in near darkness. His first paying performance was when he was eight years old, and sang Gilly Gilly Ossenfeffer Katzenellen Bogen By The Sea when the lights failed at the Dunlop Social Club, earning sixpence as a reward.

This town made us feel we had something to offer just by singing our own songs. Raymond Froggatt wil be performing in UK this year.
