PB, didn't you once tell me that "To Be Loved" was the wedding song for someone in your family? Great choice.
I told you that years ago. You've got some memory, Old Timer .
Yes, it was my parents wedding song. They were married in the Fall of '58 (they didn't waste any time because I was born a year later ).
And what's funny is, from all of the research that I've done (and correct me if I'm wrong), it wasn't THAT big a hit when it was released earlier that year. And Jackie had only released singles up until that point. I don't think he actually cut an album until the '60s, so it's not like they heard it on an album before it got any radio play. From what I understand, it became very popular at weddings in the early '60s, so I guess they were a bit ahead of the curve.

The Four Aces, or a band?
As you know, my Pop is 85 now. He loves the Four Aces. The lead singer is still alive and still singing if I remember right. I saw them all that long ago on one of TJ's PBS specials.
