Harry was so unique. I loved the song he did called "Daybreak". IT was from a rock and roll version of Dracula and starred a bunch of rockers. Anyone else here remember that movie?
Anyway, a bunch of songs from that movie made it onto an album album, Son of Schmilsson . It's my favorite of his, even though he had a lot of other hits (like Coconut posted here) are in that movie. It's such a fun/funny flick, so 70's.
Thanks for sharing some Harry with us. Made me smile.
