"Cry" (Ronnie Dove) #18 12/24/1966

The last Top 40 record for Ronnie Dove was a remake of Johnnie Ray's first hit from 1951. Ronnie got started in the clubs around Baltimore in the late 50's and early 60's doing covers of Elvis songs. He made a career of performing ballads and doing them well. You could say he was basically the poor man's Bobby Vinton, never deviating from a successful style.
