Remembering B.J. Thomas

From LaMonte McLemore‘s FB page…

We are saddened by the loss of the great B.J. Thomas who excelled in Pop, Country & Gospel–he always brought Soul to every note! It was an honor for me to solo with “Raindrops Keep Fallin’ on my Head” during The 5th Dimension’s “Rain Medley” in our live shows. Our condolences & prayers, LaMonte & Team

Marilyn McCoo recounted at the FOREVER 5th DIMENSION interview, “Marilyn & Billy’s Livingroom” and in a feature I conducted with Marilyn & Billy (Davis, Jr.) at Culture Sonar for their 50th wedding anniversary, that among her favorite duet partners while hosting TV’s memorable “Solid Gold” was B. J. Thomas. Marilyn & Billy also expressed that it was so good to be performing at the Jimmy Webb Carnegie Hall tribute a few years back, with cherished friends like B. J. ~~Robert-Allan Arno

2 of the Best: Here are Marilyn & B. J. duet-ing with 3 of Mr. Thomas’s greatest hits: “Raindrops,” “Hooked on a Feelin'” and “Somebody Done Somebody Wrong Song”:
