Laurie London



Laurie London
 


Laurie London (b. London, England 19 January 1944) achieved fame as a boy singer of the 1950's, recording in both English and German.
At the age of 13 he made an up-tempo version of the spiritual song He's Got the Whole World in His Hands for Capitol Records (3891). In April 1958 it reached #1 on the charts and remained there for 4 weeks, but was to be his only hit record.
According to one online source, , "he worked at the Abbey Road Studios with such renowned producers as Norman Newell and George Martin" and that "special songs were written for him, tailored to the German taste in popular music, and he recorded them in Cologne and Munich with producer, Nils Nobach."
He participated in the 1959 "Deutsches Schlager-Festival" (German Hit-Festival) singing "Bum Ladda Bum Bum".
London has a credit as "singer" in the 1961 German movie "...und du, mein Schatz, bleibst hier", which might be loosely translated as "stay with me, my darling".
He retired from singing at 19.
