He was OK, I never rated him though, he was too lightweight.

He always said he should have give it more grit too late now

I don't think he was capable. You either have grit or you don't.

I think he's brilliant. I've only heard his Greatest Hits but there isn't a bad song on there.

Did the album consist of 6 songs then? It's stretching the imagination to call the others greatest hits.

It Marty came on the TV or radio, I wouldn't necessarily turn it off, but equally I wouldn't turn it on just to watch him or listen to him. He's a third rate Billy Fury, or even lower, because Billy was good. Marty was bland.

Marty Wilde & Billy Fury topped the bill at a stage show I saw in 1962.

The singing was good, but their attempts at humour were toe-curling !

marty wilde gave billy fury his start in showbiz when he heard some of his songs one night

Billy Fury - Just Because just look at him dancing Elvis style . it starts at 6.41

Thank you for the share. This resembles some scenes in Elvis' Loving You movie. Billy Fury studied Elvis very well, especially the way he looked into the camera and towards the audience, but his movements were too exaggerated and different to Elvis'.
Btw. before that is also a clip of Johnny Hallyday. Very great artist with a lot of charisma and a very good voice.
