The Last Platter (Herb Reed) has broken

Herb Reed, the last of the original, wonderful Platters, died yesterday (June 4) at 83. Will key them up tonight on my iPod on my way home.

What a beautiful voice the man had. Only You, Smoke Gets in Your Eyes, Harbor Lights, Great Pretender. The Platters were one of the greatest singing groups of all time, IMO.
