    Lead Singer Of The Beau-Marks Gone At 81

    Noticed this in the Toronto Star on Saturday and I suspect it may turn up on Ashby's show in the coming weeks. The lead singer of the Beau-Marks has died. Ray Hutchinson was 81. His online obit calls him one of the pioneers of early Canadian rock and roll. 

    "Ray was a co-founder, guitar player and lead singer of Canada's first Rock and Roll band, The Beau-Marks. The Beau-Marks' who gave us such hits as 'Classmate', 'The Tender Years' and the hit single 'Clap Your Hands'. Ray performed all over Ontario and Quebec for close to 35 years and certainly left his mark in the Canadian music industry."

    Ray Charles Hutchinson Obit

    Fan of his or not, this is still good to know:

    "Ray Hutchinson became synonymous with innovation in the business and was among the first performers to use an echo box, wireless mic and slide shows while on stage" 

    Good for him!
