@70s80s90sthrowback: The fantastic Joe Longthorne on The Royal Variety performance in 1989. Joe Longthorne was an English singer and impressionist. He performed on stage and television, and released three platinum albums. Longthorne started his TV career at the age of fourteen when he landed a part in Yorkshire Television's series Junior Showtime, and rose to popularity in 1981 through the London Weekend Television series Search For a Star, leading to his own television series The Joe Longthorne Show. Longthorne was known for his renditions of songs in the style of Dame Shirley Bassey. His other impersonations included Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr. and Tom Jones. He sadly passed away at home in Blackpool on 3 August 2019, aged 64 #FYP #JoeLongthorne #VarietyShow #impressions #impersonation #ShirleyBassey #TomJones #Singers

Sadly, they don't make them like this anymore. We don't produce entertainers in the UK in this day and age.

if he hadn't have done this for laughs he may have been considered one of the greatest vocalists of our time, He clearly understood soundwaves.
