Del Shannon

Del Shannon, born Charles Weedon Westover on 30 December 1934 in Grand Rapids, Michigan, was one of the few American rock 'n' rollers to survive the onslaught of the British beat wave. Raised in rural Coopersville, he learned the ukulele from his mother and taught himself to play on a cheap guitar; his high falsetto, later his trademark, he trained on records by the Ink Spots.

During his military service Westover was stationed in Stuttgart, where he gained his first stage experience in the army programme 'Get Up And Go'. Back in Michigan, he played at the Hi-Lo Club in Battle Creek. It was there, together with keyboard player Max Crook, who played his self-built Musitron, that the worldwide hit 'Runaway' took shape. In 1961 the song topped the US charts and in Britain even knocked Elvis Presley off the number-one spot.

Further successes such as 'Hats Off To Larry', 'Little Town Flirt' and 'Keep Searchin'' followed; the song 'Swiss Maid' recalled his time in Germany. Shannon, who wrote most of his own hits, later turned to producing as well and worked in the 1970s and 1980s with musicians such as Tom Petty and Jeff Lynne. In 1981 he achieved a late comeback with 'Sea Of Love'. Del Shannon took his own life in 1990.
