Joe Harris

Never heard of this singer before but he has quite a good voice and the accent adds to the voice to make it unusual...so to me it a good L/P !!.....Shades Of "Engelbert" in parts !!!

 Joe Harris (Bruges, 25 December 1943 to 1 June 2003) was a Flemish singer.
Harris was born in Bruges, as Georges Lisabeth. He was the youngest child. His parents drove a grocery and a cafe. At twelve, he recorded his first album under the name Harris Joske. He was known as a singer in the sixties and seventies. Initially he sang English songs with Joe Harris and his band The Pink Umbrellas. In 1968 the band had two hits with Hope of a Miracle and Daisy Does. Another English song is' Home isn't home anymore "from 1969. In the seventies, he switched to Dutch.
